Adding FortiTokens to the FortiGate
Before one or more FortiTokens can be used to authenticate logons, they must be added to the FortiGate. The import feature is used to enter many FortiToken serial numbers at one time. The serial number file must be a text file with one FortiToken serial number per line.
One FortiToken can be added to multiple FortiGate units. This is useful for maintaining two-factor authentication for employees over multiple office locations, such as for employees who travel frequently between offices.
