Adding Mobile tokens to Fortiauthenticator

Leave a comment Posted by on November 11, 2021

When purchasing mobile tokens for Fortiauthenticator FGT or a partner will usually send a PDF with an activation code. The PDF has good instructions on how to register the code, but I thought I would show some images.

Open the PDF. On the top it will say something like “FortiToken TM Mobile Redemption Certificate”

It will also have an activation code – for example 34D8-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx

Login into your Fortiauthenticator and navigate to

  1. Go to Authentication > User Management > FortiTokens and select Create New.
  1. Select FortiToken Mobile, enter the 20-digit certificate code in the Activation Code box and select OK.
  1. Once the activation code has been validated, FortiTokens will be displayed on the page with Status set to Available

Thats it! the main thing to remember is to reset both the saved-configuration main, and backup slots. Then reboot, and make sure not to save the configuration.
