If you use a mobile device for multi-factor authentication (MFA), you may not always have wireless connection. In some instances, you may need to use a bypass code that is generated directly from your Duo Mobile app. You can still authenticate by generating a passcode with the Duo Mobile app or a hardware token.
Generate a passcode with the Duo Mobile app
- When prompted to verify your identity with MFA, select Enter a Passcode.
- Open the Duo Mobile app on your mobile device.
- Tap the Key icon or carat to expand your University of Maryland College Park account.
- A six-digit numeric code will be generated. Enter this code in the Enter Passcode field on the multi-factor authentication window on your computer.
Generate a passcode with a hardware token
Alternatively, a hardware token can be used to generate a passcode when traveling internationally. View Authenticate With Multi-Factor Authentication to learn more.
