MFA-Duo - First Time Setup for Token/Fob

This document will walk you through the process of setting up Duo Multi-factor Authentication for the first time for use with a token.

Note: This document is only for setup if you're planning to use a token instead of a smartphone/tablet with MFA Duo. If you're planning to use a smartphone/tablet, see MFA-Duo - First Time Setup for Smartphone or Tablet.
