+.It Cm AuthenticationMethods
+Specifies the authentication methods that must be successfully completed
+for a user to be granted access.
+This option must be followed by one or more comma-separated lists of
+authentication method names.
+Successful authentication requires completion of every method in at least
+one of these lists.
+.Pp
+For example, an argument of
+.Dq publickey,password publickey,keyboard-interactive
+would require the user to complete public key authentication, followed by
+either password or keyboard interactive authentication.
+Only methods that are next in one or more lists are offered at each stage,
+so for this example, it would not be possible to attempt password or
+keyboard-interactive authentication before public key.
+.Pp
+This option is only available for SSH protocol 2 and will yield a fatal
+error if enabled if protocol 1 is also enabled.
+Note that each authentication method listed should also be explicitly enabled
+in the configuration.
+The default is not to require multiple authentication; successful completion
+of a single authentication method is sufficient.
.It Cm AuthorizedKeysCommand
Specifies a program to be used to look up the user's public keys.
The program will be invoked with a single argument of the username
