Hi, logon as a global admin or global reader and see if a MFA server is listed here under Server Status:
Under security in the Azure Portal:
Upcoming MFA Server deprecation, determine if using MFA server or Azure AD

Have the following warning on our Azure AD portal page.
Upcoming MFA Server deprecation
Please migrate from MFA Server to Azure AD Multi-Factor Authentication by September 2024 to avoid any service impact.
This was set up before I joined the company and I am unable to determine if we use a MFA server or Azure AD. I believe it is azure AD but wanted to see if there is an easy way to verify. We do use a hybrid deployment with ADFS but multi-factor auth was set up in the past 2 or 3 years.

2023-03-13T16:12:41.6166667+00:00 Thank you for your timely response. Under Multi-Factor Authentication | Server Status - it is blank, I take that to mean we do not have an on prem server and are in fact using Azure MFA.

2023-03-13T16:30:24.2766667+00:00 Correct. If the MFA server is not listed there, you arent using on-prem MFA server. :)
Even if it was listed, it doesnt necessarily mean you are using either haha, but if its not there, its not in use.
