Editing the name of a security code issuer

You can have several identifiers (they are called issuers) for different Administration Servers. You can change the name of a security code issuer in case, for example, if the Administration Server already uses a similar name of security code issuer for another Administration Server. By default, the name of a security code issuer is the same as the name of the Administration Server.

After you change the security code issuer name you have to reissue a new secret key and pass it to the authenticator app.

To specify a new name of security code issuer:

  1. In the main menu, click the settings icon () next to the name of the required Administration Server.

    The Administration Server properties window opens.

  2. In the user settings window that opens, select the Account protection tab.
  3. On the Account protection tab, click the Edit link.

    The Edit Security code issuer section opens.

  4. Specify a new security code issuer name.
  5. Click the OK button.

A new security code issuer name is specified for the Administration Server.
