Syntax 

Disable-DAOtpAuthentication
       [-ComputerName <String>]
       [-Force]
       [-PassThru]
       [-CimSession <CimSession[]>]
       [-ThrottleLimit <Int32>]

Description

The Disable-DAOtpAuthentication cmdlet disables one-time password (OTP) authentication for DirectAccess (DA) users. This cmdlet does not disable two-factor authentication, or delete OTP settings in DA Group Policy Objects (GPOs).

Examples

EXAMPLE 1 

PS C:\>Disable-DAOtpAuthentication -PassThru -Force
OtpStatus                      : Disabled
CAServers                      : {dc1.corp.contoso.com\corp-DC1-CA}
CertificateTemplateName        : DAOTPLogon
RadiusServer                   : {rsa.corp.contoso.com}
UserSecuriotyGroupName         : 

If the **Force** parameter is not used, then the DA administrator is presented with the following prompt.
PS C:\>Disable-DAOtpAuthentication -PassThru
OtpStatus                      : Disabled
CAServers                      : {dc1.corp.contoso.com\corp-DC1-CA}
CertificateTemplateName        : DAOTPLogon
RadiusServer                   : {rsa.corp.contoso.com}
UserSecuriotyGroupName         : 
 
Disabling OTP authentication will change DirectAccess user authentication settings. Do you want to continue? 
[Y] Yes  [N] No  [S] Suspend  [?] Help  (default is "Y"):

This example disables OTP authentication for DA users. All of the current OTP settings will be kept while OTP status will be changed to disabled. Note: This cmdlet does not disable two-factor user authentication and computer certificate for IPsec.

Optional Parameters

-AsJob

Runs the cmdlet as a background job. Use this parameter to run commands that take a long time to complete.

Type: SwitchParameter
Position: Named
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: False
-CimSession

Runs the cmdlet in a remote session or on a remote computer. Enter a computer name or a session object, such as the output of a New-CimSession or Get-CimSession cmdlet. The default is the current session on the local computer.

Type: CimSession[]
Aliases: Session
Position: Named
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: False
-ComputerName

Specifies the IPv4 or IPv6 address, or host name, of the server on which the cmdlet should run.

Type: String
Aliases: Cn
Position: Named
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: False
-Confirm

Prompts you for confirmation before running the cmdlet.

Type: SwitchParameter
Aliases: cf
Position: Named
Default value: False
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: False
-Force

Forces the command to run without asking for user confirmation.

Type: SwitchParameter
Position: Named
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: False
-PassThru

Returns an object representing the item with which you are working. By default, this cmdlet does not generate any output.

Type: SwitchParameter
Position: Named
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: False
-ThrottleLimit

Specifies the maximum number of concurrent operations that can be established to run the cmdlet. If this parameter is omitted or a value of 0 is entered, then Windows PowerShell® calculates an optimum throttle limit for the cmdlet based on the number of CIM cmdlets that are running on the computer. The throttle limit applies only to the current cmdlet, not to the session or to the computer.

Type: Int32
Position: Named
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: False
-WhatIf

Shows what would happen if the cmdlet runs. The cmdlet is not run.

Type: SwitchParameter
Aliases: wi
Position: Named
Default value: False
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: False

None

Outputs

Microsoft.Management.Infrastructure.CimInstance#DAOtpAuth

The Microsoft.Management.Infrastructure.CimInstance object is a wrapper class that displays Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) objects. The path after the pound sign ( # ) provides the namespace and class name for the underlying WMI object.

The DAOtpAuth object contains the following OTP authentication configuration settings for DA:.

-- OtpStatus specifies whether OTP authentication is enabled or disabled.

-- RadiusServer specifies the OTP RADIUS server names and addresses.

-- UserSecurityGroupName specifies the security group of users that are exempt from two-factor authentication.

-- CAServer specifies the certification authority (CA) servers used for OTP authentication.

-- CertificateTemplateName specifies the name of the OTP certificate template.

-- SigningCertificateTemplateName specifies the name of the certificate template used to enroll the certificate used by Remote Access to sign certificates used for OTP authentication.
