New feature request: Generate barcode

PASHYN

Hello,

In my currect job i need to use Sophos recovery process almost daily.

My request is that in sophos console recovery and Sophos PoA you could get code as a barcode that can be scanned.

Currently i just copy paste recovery code here http://www.barcode-generator.org/  (Using Core 128) when scan code using barcode scanner so i do not have to type long code manually to client pc.

If you could generate barcore directly in sophos that would be great!

Thanks!

PASHYN

    This is not a bad idea... Doesn't the POA recovery already use checksum security for the algorithm for the code? I think it would be even more beneficial to have RFID gateways that you can use instead of barcodes... barcodes can be hacked and in some cases easily manipulated.

    I agree with Pashyn in the idea of finding something to simplify the code process as I have actually ran out of time before finishing the code with a enduser and its annoying. 

    But do not forget that you can post this Idea to the dev team here: http://www.sophos.com/en-us/support/feature-requests.aspx 

    Be heard man!
