When to Use?

Follow the instructions below to connect a new phone to Duo Mobile. However, you will need to be able to access Duo on your old device or if your new device has the same number as your previous device.

Procedure

These instructions are for faculty and staff only and assume that you still have access to your previous Duo Mobile or other means of authenticating Duo, such as a hardware token.

If you do not have access to your old Duo Mobile, please visit https://www.gvsu.edu/it/duo-multifactor-authentication-233.htm for more details.

this is how Duo Mobile appears in both Android and Apple application stores1.  Download and install the Duo Mobile app on your device.

2a. If you are ON campus, proceed to Step #3.

2b.  If you are OFF campus you’ll need to connect to the VPN via Pulse Secure.*

  • When prompted by Pulse Secure for your Secondary Password, enter SMS and hit enter. Pulse Secure will display an error message (which you can ignore) and you'll receive a text message from Duo with a code.
  • Enter the text message’s verification code as your Secondary Password and the VPN should connect within a few seconds.

Note: If you are off campus AND your phone number has changed, this will not work. Please contact the IT Service Desk at (616) 331-2101 or it@gvsu.edu to update your DUO Security contact info.
