How to modify the Authentication Web Page

Does anyone here knows how to modify the HTML Web Page that clients use to access their VMware Horizon environment via HTML5? We are basically looking at modifying the "passcode" word when doing 2FA to something else like token for example.

Since horizon 7.11 it's possible to create labels:

For RADIUS authentication, complete the rest of the fields:

  1. Select Use the same username and password for RADIUS and Windows authentication if the initial RADIUS authentication uses Windows authentication that triggers an out-of-band transmission of a token code, and this token code is used as part of a RADIUS challenge.If you select this check box, users will not be prompted for Windows credentials after RADIUS authentication if the RADIUS authentication uses the Windows username and password. Users do not have to reenter the Windows username and password after RADIUS authentication.
  2. From the Authenticator drop-down menu, select Create New Authenticator and complete the page.
    • To enable custom user name and passcode labels to appear in the RADIUS authentication dialog for end users, enter custom labels in the Username Label and Passcode Label fields.
    • Set Accounting port to 0 unless you want to enable RADIUS accounting. Set this port to a non-zero number only if your RADIUS server supports collecting accounting data. If the RADIUS server does not support accounting messages and you set this port to a nonzero number, the messages are sent and ignored and retried a number of times, resulting in a delay in authentication.Accounting data can be used in order to bill users based on usage time and data. Accounting data can also be used for statistical purposes and for general network monitoring.
    • If you specify a realm prefix string, the string is placed at the beginning of the username when it is sent to the RADIUS server. For example, if the username entered in Horizon Client is jdoe and the realm prefix DOMAIN-A\ is specified, the username DOMAIN-A\jdoe is sent to the RADIUS server. Similarly if you use the realm suffix, or postfix, string @mycorp.com, the username jdoe@mycorp.com is sent to the RADIUS server.
