Okta SMS – integration manual
Here we describe how to set up Okta SMS alerts. The integration uses SMSEagle Hardware SMS Gateway. The process is easy and should take 5 minutes to complete.
SMSEagle is an offline hardware SMS gateway. Therefore no external connection to 3rd party system is required. All alerts are generated on-premise and sent directly to a cellular network. This solution can be used in secure installations, without Internet access.
