MFA on managed switches

Hello! Are there any netgear managed switches that support MFA for the admin login? Our insurance company is requiring it even for INTERNAL access... which, I feel is overkill but.... not my call. ...

    Hi tastleford,

    Thank you for reaching out to the Community.

    No, we don't support multi-factor MFA for the admin login to the Web GUI or console telnet/ssh. Sorry, I agree, it would be quite a thing.

    Instead, we support management access control (so CPU ACL) to restrict admin login to certain L2/L3 only. Also TACACs is supported for admin login.

    I hope this helps!
    Regards,
