System Settings, Defaults, Clusters, and Active Directory Authentication / System Settings |
Voice PIN authentication allows badge users to record a 5 digit personal identification number (PIN) to securely login or access your voice messages.
When voice PIN authentication is enabled, badge users are required to record a pre-determined PIN number of their choice to login to the Vocera system or to access their voice messages. By default Vocera allows badge user to record a 5 digit PIN. Badge users can choose any 5 numbers between the range of 0 to 9 to create a PIN.
Voice PIN authentication is not enabled by default. System administrator must enable the required security permissions to allow authorized users to record their voice PINs. A user can initiate a recording session by issuing the "Record a voice PIN" command through their badge.
When a user is enabled for voice PIN authentication and records a PIN, the system challenges the user to say the PIN each time they log in. If the correct PIN is entered, the user is permitted to login or play voice messages. When system fails to match the PIN, user is denied login and asked to recite the correct PIN.
System administrator can enable the voice PIN authentication in the Preferences page on the System screen and grant permissions using the Groups screen in the Administration Console, see Setting Up PIN Authentication for more information.
