Issuing a security token to a user

As a Control Center system administrator, you can issue a security token to a user (to enable two-factor authentication) so they can view and manage such as Adaptive Network Security, Adaptive Threat Intelligence, DDoS Hyper, DDoS Mitigation Service, Encrypted Wavelength, and NG9-1-1.

To issue a security token to a user:

  1. Click Admin, then click Users.

    Control Center lists the users for your organization. Users with additional permissions or roles have icons next to their username: system administrators (    ), security users (), VoIP users ().

  1. Search for the user by doing one of the following:

    • Start typing part of the users first name, last name, or username in the Search field. (Control Center filters the user list as you type.)
  1. When you find the user, click the row for the user.

    Control Center displays profile information for the user    .

    Control Center issues a security token to the user and adds the     icon next to the username for the user. Control Center also sends an email to the user with instructions on how to download and install the token software.
