initial_window

1 hour

Initial Time Window

This controls the maximum allowed time variation between an authenticator and the host system, the first time that the authenticator is used. The time is specified in hours.

This Initial Time Window is also used directly after a Reset Application operation, which can be used if it appears that the internal clock in the authenticator has drifted too much since the last successful login. This only applies to time-based authenticators when verifying an OTP.

In either case, after the first successful login, the initial time window is no longer active.

event_window

10 events

Event Window

This controls the maximum allowed number of event variations between an authenticator application and the host system during login. This only applies to event-based authenticator applications and always applies for OTP verification. For signature validation, it depends on the online signature level setting whether the event window is used or not.
