google authenticator 2FA exception based on ip/host?

I would like to be able to whitelist hosts and/or ip addresses that will not have to use 2FA on my server, is that possible? Can't find the answer anywhere.



I have found a few solutions where you could create a group and put all users there and force 2FA, and a few other options but not the one I am looking for.

          Put auth sufficient pam_access.so before your auth required pam_google_authenticator.soline.



          And in /etc/security/access.conf you add whitelist ip like +:ALL:<ip>



          sufficient means it will not try further pam module if successful, but if it fails, it will continue to try next module.

          • Thanks. And, can I use a wildcard in that ip set in the access.conf?

          • Look into /etc/security/access.conf, there are examples. For 192.168.101.*, just type +:ALL:192.168.101, or you can use netmask
