Answer
- B Time-based one-time passwords (TOTP) from an authenticator app
- D Recovery codes as a fallback
Explanation
The core registers exactly two MFA providers: TOTP, where an authenticator app generates a new code every 30 seconds, and recovery codes, a list of single-use codes in case the smartphone is lost. Recovery codes can only be set up in addition to another provider. Users enable MFA in their user settings; administrators can require MFA for everyone or for specific groups. SMS or email codes are only available via extensions that register their own provider with the service tag mfa.provider.
