How do I add a device to Duo 2FA?

Overview

Recommendations

• Adding a mobile phone as your primary device. This will allow you to use the Duo Mobile app for the best experience.
• Adding at least two devices. If you have only one device defined and it is lost or disabled, you will not be able to access the system.

Process

1. Login to identity.uillinois.edu and select Manage my 2FA, then select + Add a new device. Choose the type of device you are adding:
   
   
    
2. If enrolling a phone, enter your phone number and check Yes, you want to use the Duo Mobile App and then click Continue. (Tablet users skip this step. If you do not want to provide your phone number when configuring your smartphone, you can hit the back button and select tablet. You will only receive push notifications or generate a passcode with this option.)
   
   
    
3. For simple voice or text message verification, choose No then click Continue.
    
4. Select the type of device then click Continue.
