| Type.. | To.. |
|---|---|
| password,passcode | Log in using a passcode, either generated with Duo Mobile, sent via SMS, generated by your hardware token, or provided by an administrator. Examples: 'mypass123,123456' or 'mypass123,1456789' |
| password,push | Push a login request to your phone (if you have Duo Mobile installed and activated on your iOS, Android, or Windows Phone device). Just review the request and tap 'Approve' to log in. |
| password,phone | Authenticate via phone callback. |
| password,sms | Get a new batch of SMS passcodes. Your login attempt will fail — log in again with one of your new passcodes. |
