Connectra offers the option of using SMS messages instead of authentication tokens. An SMS message is sent when the user starts the login process. This SMS message is a single-use code that cannot be passed on to another person.

The technical guide provides detailed setup information, but the process is basically an encrypted HTTPS GET command sent by Connectra to 2sms in order to initiate a SMS message to be sent to the user’s mobile phone.
