Authentication Policy

The Authentication Policy option allows Access rules to require different credentials or credential combinations to allow access.

Card Only - This option requires the Person to scan a Card credential
PIN Only - This option requires the Person to enter a PIN on the reader's keypad.
Card or PIN - This option requires the Person to scan a Card credential or enter a PIN on the reader's keypad.
Card and PIN - This option requires the Person to scan a Card credential and enter a PIN on the reader's keypad.

Important Notes:

1. ProdataKey app credentials (Bluetooth and Mobile) are treated as Card Credentials. 
2. If an Authentication Policy is set at the Device level, this may conflict with the selected Authentication Policy and cause Credentials to not function properly.

Devices

The Devices option allows the selection of the Doors/Devices available on the Cloud Node system or Partition for inclusion in the rule. Tap/click the + icon next to Devices and tap/click to place checkmarks next to the device(s) and then click Select.
