One Time Passwords

The One Time Passwords Generation System is used to generate temporary passwords for Deep Freeze that expire at midnight on the day they were generated.

One Time Passwords dialog can be accessed from

•	Tools > One Time Passwords in the Enterprise Console. For more information refer to Using Deep Freeze Enterprise Console.

•	File > One Time Passwords in the Configuration Administrator. For more information refer to Using Deep Freeze Enterprise Configuration Administrator.

A One Time Password (OTP) can be useful if, for example, a Deep Freeze password is forgotten or if a configuration file was created without any passwords defined. An OTP can also be used to provide access to a computer for an individual performing maintenance duties without requiring that individual to know the permanent Deep Freeze password.

To create an OTP, complete the following steps:

1.	Select either Password valid for one use only or Password valid for multiple uses. All OTPs expire at midnight on the day they were created, regardless of type.

2.	Enter the OTP Token from the computer that requires the OTP into the Token field. The OTP Token for the computer is located in the logon dialog, as shown below.

3.	Click Generate.

The Deep Freeze Command Line interface does not support the use of One Time Passwords.
