Example 1: This example returns details about the MFA device assigned to the IAM user David. In this example you can tell that it is a virtual device because the SerialNumber is an ARN instead of a physical device's actual serial number.

Get-IAMMFADevice -UserName David

Output:

EnableDate                  SerialNumber                           UserName
----------                  ------------                           --------
