Planning to use CA Siteminder for Splunk as authentication mechanism, want to check if it supports two factor authentication.

With Splunk 6.5.x yes. CA Siteminder (SAML SSO) has been configured (for Splunk Cloud and thus as well will work for on-prem). Siteminder is not "supported" for 6.4.x or earlier. The two factor auth is facilitated on the CA side prior to sending the SAML assertion to the Splunk instance, so the two factor piece is separate from integration with CA Siteminder via SAML.
