Fortinet FortiToken-200B Quick Start Manual

FortiToken-200B
FortiToken-200B is a small hardware One Time Password (OTP) generator,
aka Token, that fits on a key-chain. Simply press the button and the
FortiToken-200B generates and displays a secure one-time password (OTP)
that you enter along with your regular password for secure authentication and
access to critical applications and sensitive data.
The time remaining is shown on a circular time in 10-second increments.
After the 60 seconds is up, the password expires and the FortiToken display
turns off.

Step 2. Activating the FortiToken unit
Before you can successfully use the FortiToken-200B token generator, it must be activated on the FortiGate or FortiAuthenticator system.
The following requirements must be met before you can do this:
• The FortiGate or FortiAuthenticator unit system time must be configured to synchronize with a Network Time
Protocol (NTP) server. Note that with FortiOS, FortiToken identifiers must be entered into the FortiGate unit, which
then contacts FortiGuard servers to verify the information before activating them.
FortiAuthenticator on the other hand acts as a repository for all FortiToken devices used on your network. It is
•
a single point of registration and synchronization for easier installation and maintenance
The FortiGate or FortiAuthenticator unit must be able to access the FortiGuard Distribution Network (FDN).
•
