Setting up Multi-factor

Authentication
End user experience

Once an administrator has enabled multifactor authentication, there are a few steps you will have to
take to set things up.

If you have Teams started or you log into the Office 365 portal (https://portal.office.com), you will see
the following. Follow the steps below to finish setting up multifactor authentication.

1. Click Next to start the setup

2. Choose the MFA authentication method you prefer. Verify information is correct and click Next.
3. MFA will verify via method chosen above. Enter in the MFA info and click Verify.

4. App password: This is used for applications like Outlook. Copy the temporary password and
click done.
 5. Create a new text document and paste this password into it to use later. Delete the file once
applications are set up. You can generate a new app password at any time.
6. Open Outlook, such as Outlook 2010, 2013, or 2016. An app password will not be needed for
2019.
7. Wherever you're prompted for your password, paste the app password in the box. For example,
if you've already added your account to Outlook, when prompted paste the app password here:

Logging into Teams

When you 1st log into the Teams application, after MFA has been set up, after you initial login, you
will be asked to enter the code texted to your cell phone. Enter in that code and the application will
start. You will not be prompted for this unless you manually log out of the application or your
password has changed.
