Hi, got an E-Mail from Fortinet that they will force 2FA.

Ok....BUT! only with the FortiToken App.

Why??? Why cant i use any other Authenticator?

Now i have to install this app, that i need only once in a blue moon.

Same with Synology, why are they doing that?!

of course Fortinet suggest their own app :)
This does not mean that there is no alternatives. However I never tried.

Vice versa the FortiToken App does not only support FortiTokens. I also added 2FA from e.g. Cloudflare and some others to it and it works fine.
