You can keep the Starlink devices from being prompted for MFA without opening things up to everyone by tying the bypass to trusted devices (not just IPs). Common approaches are: enroll those physical devices into your MDM and use Okta Device Trust (so policies can check device posture), or terminate device traffic through a small VPN/NAT gateway that gives those devices a stable outbound IP range. Another pattern is to put the specific users/devices in a dedicated Okta group and create an authentication policy rule that allows reduced MFA for that group only when Device Trust (or a specific network zone) is present plus strict logging and short TTLs. For ideas others have discussed, see this similar thread: https://devforum.okta.com/t/how-to-bypass-mfa-code/23976.
