Currently MFA requires a credential value that contains a “dummy” MFA portion to cause the Radius server to push an authentication request to the user device. Having the push request generated without explicitly having to specify the dummy MFA portion will allow authentication on z/OS to behave similar to authentications performed in other environments, and simplify end-user training when MFA is implemented for all of our users. It also eliminates having to enable all applications to allow a pass phrase to be specified, so that there is space to provide the dummy MFA portion in the credential.

This is an essential requirement for us before we can deploy zMFA in our environment where we use Generic Radius (PING) and wish to authenticate with RACF PW. This provided the added security needed without the need to alter every logon screen to accept >8 char PWs.
Would also like to add that both password and passphrase support would be the best !!!
We are just trialling this product and was surprised that the product didn't have this feature already. Definately a requirement for us
