How to add multiple devices to Duo

If you already have a phone working with Duo but would like to add an additional device like a tablet or other wi-fi connected device, here are the instructions. Note: you need a computer, your phone (or current Duo device), and the device you will be using to complete this.

On your computer, log in to 2fa.clemson.edu and authenticate with your current device if requested.
Then, under the Manage Devices tab, select Open the Universal Prompt.
Do not accept the Duo notification on your phone that this causes.
Select Other Options on your computer.
Then select Manage Devices. Accept the Duo notification on your phone.

Red arrow to Manage devices

If you don't get a Duo notification on your device, select Duo Push on the computer. In either case, accept the Duo notification on your device.
On the computer, you should see your current Duo devices. Select Add a device.

On the computer, select Duo Mobile.
