    You are talking about using Microsoft Authenticator to give you the 6-digit 2-factor auth key to login to a VPN using FortiClient, right? If so, no I dont think this is possible. Last time I tried this it let me setup Authenticator with my VPN account but the generated codes were not correct. It is like it uses a similar but slightly-different algorithm that is incompatible with Fortinet's 2FA.

    If you figure out how to configure Duo to work with the FortiVPN, please update this thread. I've had no luck getting it to work.
