You will receive a text with a 6-digit passcode that you will enter in the box to verify your device
Once your device is verified, you will be prompted to download the Duo Mobile app
Download and Activate Duo MobileAt this time, you will use your smartphone to download the Duo Mobile app. To locate the app, follow the links on the Duo website or, depending on your type of phone, go to the Apple Store, Google Play Store or Windows Store.
Search for the free “Duo Mobile" app and download it.
Open the Duo Mobile app. For “Duo Mobile” Would Like to Send You Notifications, click Allow so that Duo Mobile can send you push notifications (account access approval requests).
Click Add Account. Click OK to let Duo Mobile access your camera, which will be used for scanning the barcode.
If you have previously registered a device with Duo Mobile, you will not see the Add Account button. Instead, press the plus sign in the upper right corner of your screen.
Link Your Smartphone to Your AccountFor these next steps, you will need to switch between your computer and your smartphone to scan the barcode that links your smartphone to your CalNet ID account.
On your computer, click Next
Point your smartphone’s camera at the QR barcode on your computer screen to scan the barcode. (What is a QR barcode? It’s that square with all the squiggles.)
Once you have successfully scanned the QR barcode, a green check mark will pop up on the QR code to confirm that your smartphone device is linked to your account. Click Continue.
You may be prompted to name your account after pressing the green Continue button. We suggest leaving it as CalNet UC Berkeley, or choosing a name that is obvious to you.
Congratulations! You’ve successfully enrolled your smartphone. Now when you log in to campus systems, you will be prompted for a second-step verification.
A "push" is an approval request that you can send to your smartphone or tablet.
Log in to your CalNet account with your usual credentials. This is your first-step verification.
After entering in your CalNet credentials, the below screen will appear notifying you that a Duo Push has been sent to your registered device. Open the Duo Mobile app to view the notification.
Note: If Duo Push is not the default authentication choice that appears once logging into CalNet, you can click on “Other Options'' and select "Duo Push" which will be under the list of your registered devices.
Approve the login request to complete your login, and you're done!
Did you know? You can use a passcode from the Duo App to complete the 2-Step on your smartphone from anywhere in the world -- even if you do not have a wifi or cellular connection!
On your phone, go to Duo Mobile. Tap the entry that says "CalNet - UC Berkeley" to view a passcode.
Log in to your CalNet account with your usual credentials. This is your first-step verification.
When you are prompted to do a 2-Step, Duo Mobile Passcode will show up if it is the default 2-Step choice. If it is not the default when prompted to enter your credentials, select Other options.
Note: Passcodes are single-use only; you must enter a new passcode each time you verify. Duo deactivates any old, unused passcodes once you request new ones.
Passcodes can be generated from the Duo Mobile app or taken from your most recently saved batch of requested passwords from CalNet Account Manager. (See Requesting Passcodes for instructions on how to get one or more passcodes.)
Just like a basic cell phone, your smartphone can receive passcodes by text!
Log in to your CalNet account with your usual credentials. This is your first-step verification.
When you are prompted to do a 2-Step, select Other Options and Text Message Passcode.
You will receive a text message with a passcode to enter.
Note: Passcodes are single-use only; you must enter a new passcode each time you verify. Duo deactivates any old, unused passcodes once you request new ones.
