Explanation
When the "Allow user notifications on multiple devices" setting is left at Default (-), the system sends the MFA Push notification only to the first enrolled device - the oldest/earliest device the user registered. This is the platform's out-of-the-box behavior before an administrator explicitly enables multi-device notifications.
Why the distractors are wrong:
- A is wrong because the notification is sent - it just goes to one device, not zero.
- C is wrong because sending to all devices requires an administrator to explicitly enable the setting; the default does not do this.
- D is wrong because the system prioritizes the first enrolled device, not the last - think of it as a queue where position #1 gets the message.
Memory tip: Think of the default as "first come, first served" - the device enrolled first gets the push. If you want to expand beyond that, an admin must actively change the setting away from the default.
