Implemented MFA / 2FA for Omada Cloud
Hi there,
As I've been working through a medium sized PoC/PoV deployment I came across a security gap in the Omada Cloud offering.
Is MFA / 2FA functionality on the roadmap for the OC200 / software controller and the cloud remote managemnt?
A similar setup to how Ubiquiti does it would be great! (via an authenticator app or WebAuthN).
This would be a great addition!
Thanks!

Would you be able to provide an ETA for the 5.0 release and confirm the MFA feature is getting added into it?
For your reference, the ETA for the Omada SDN Controller v5.0 that supports 2FA is around October 2021.
If it helps, I'm sure those of us in the thread would be happy to beta test 2FA.
Is the plan to support TOTP (via a generic authenticator app) or will additional methods like WebAuthN be supported?

Hello,
It seems this is happening. I have not connected my Omada setup to the cloud yet but their web interface seem to have 2FA implemented. I have also managed to turn it on. Read the warnings before you do it though (as stated above, it requires v5.0):

Will 2FA also be added for the OC200 and OC300 hardware controlers when they are managed from the web through TP links website omada.tplinkcloud.com?

Yes, 2FA is desperately needed.
I tried turning on 2FA in my account but, after scanning the QR code then the token code created by google authenticator was not accepted by the tplink site. So, it looks like it's a bit buggy.
Warm regards,
Chris

@Gunnebah I actually went back and reread everything that was posted and I was able to get two Factor authentication working with the tp-link online portal which is connected to my OC200 controller. Local two-factor Authentication does not work with my OC200 local login but I'm okay with that now since the online portals probably the greatest risk. I set up two-factor authentication with the Google Authenticator. My only suggestion would be try reinstalling the Google Authenticator and also making sure that the time is correct on your android/iphone device.

@Teck359 the web interface works but when you try logging in to the mobile app you get these messages.

I've tried to enable 2FA on my Omada account and it will not work. I can successfully add the QR code to the Google Authenticator app but when I type the code in it says invalid token or server busy, try again later. Tried with multiple browsers and same result. Also tried deleting QR code and then adding again but still not working. iPhone date and time all correct so this must be an issue with the TP-Link servers.

It is out for Windows! I couldn't test it as I don't have a Windows machine.
