Accessing DRVA Console/SSH with Two-Factor Authentication

This article applies to JSDR software version 4.3.x.

Jetstream DR version 4.3.x utilizes two-factor authentication as an additional layer of security to access the DRVA console/SSH. This guide provides steps to generate the one-time password (OTP) required after logging in with admin credentials.

Access DRVA Console/SSH

Login with Admin Credentials

• Access the DRVA Login Page:
  • Open a web browser and navigate to the DRVA login page.
  • Enter the admin credentials then click Login.
• OTP Prompt:
  • After successfully entering admin credentials, a prompt will appear requesting the OTP.

Generate the OTP

The OTP can be generated using a REST API client or directly from the MSA CLI.

Method 1: Using Postman or any REST API Client

1. Open Postman (or any preferred REST API Client).
2. Send a GET request to retrieve the OTP:
   GET https://:32878/drva/system/security
3. Add Required Headers (Using Postman):
   Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
x-jetdr-ms-session-id: JetStreamSessionId

Example using Postman:

• Method: GET
• URL: https://:32878/drva/system/security
• Headers (must be added under the Header section):
  Key: Content-Type, Value: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
Key: x-jetdr-ms-session-id, Value: JetStreamSessionId

Method 2: Using the curl Command from the MSA

As an alternative to Method 1 described above, the OTP can be generated directly from the MSA using the curl command:

1. Open the MSA Terminal.
2. Run the following curl command with the DRVA IP:
   curl -k -o- -H "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded" -H "x-jetdr-ms-session-id: JetStreamSessionId" https://:32878/drva/system/security
3. For RVM use the command:
   curl -k -H "x-jetdr-ms-session-id: cli-id" https://:32878/drva/system/security

Apply the OTP

After the OPT has been generated, retrieve and then apply it to access the DRVA console.

• Locate the errMessage value in the response:
  • The value corresponding to errMessage is the OTP.
  • The following examples illustrate an OTP value of 188182.

Note: The login procedure for ROCVA is the same as for DRVA; simply replace the DRVA-IP with the ROCVA-IP and the DRVA path with the ROCVA path where applicable.

Example: /drva/system/securit → /rocva/system/securit

Important: The OTP is only valid for 30 seconds. Be sure to use it promptly or a new OTP will need to be generated.
