How do I use RSA tokens to generate passwords for AuthBy ACE?
RSA Security produce 2 main types of hardware tokens. ‘Standard cards’ and ‘key fobs’ tokens have an LCD display that changes every 60 seconds, but no other buttons or switches. ‘Pinpad’ cards have an LCD display, and also 0-9 keys, a diamond button and a P button. The way you generate your password depends on the type of token you have. In RSA terminology, the number displayed by a token is called the ‘tokencode’ The number is typically 6 digits long and changes every 60 seconds. The ‘PIN’ is a secret 4 digit number that you will be assigned (or may have sletected) and which you must remember. The ‘passcode’ is what you use as your password to log in, and consists of the PIN followed by the tokencode. For standard tokens, the passcode is formed from the PIN followed by the tokencode displayed on the token. So, for example, if the PIN you have remembered that was assigned to you is 1234, and the token is currently displaying the tokencode ‘627351’, then the passcode that you will use a
