Yup, first factor is the only one that counts for logins!

Sounds a bit odd to me, how does that even make sense?

Wait, really? I thought they couldn't choose if one was disabled.

I feel like the answer is 'No' because if one factor is disabled, it shouldn't be an option for login at all.

I'm a bit confused. If one factor is disabled, can it still be an option during enrollment? I thought disabled meant it wouldn't be available.

This seems similar to a practice question we did on MFA configurations. I believe if one factor is disabled, users can't choose it at all.

I think I remember something about MFA settings, but I'm not entirely sure how 'required' and 'disabled' interact.

Okay, I think I've got this. If one MFA factor is required and another is disabled, users can choose between the two when enrolling, but can only use the first one to log in. I'll mark A as the correct answer.

I'm a bit confused by this question. I know JTA is related to transactions, but I'm not sure about the specific attributes provided by the WebLogic Server extension. I'll have to guess on this one.

Wait, does this mean I can't use my favorite MFA factor if the other one is set to 'required'? That's just plain unfair!

So I can't use my favorite factor if the other one is required? That doesn't seem right.

Aha, got it! The key is that users can choose between the factors during enrollment, but then they're stuck with the first one for logins. Tricky, but good to know.

I'm not sure I follow. Wouldn't users be able to use either factor for successful logins if one is set to 'required' and the other to 'disabled'?
