GliNet Ax 1800 openfortivpn with 2FA help how to insert the code

ironciuffo · June 9, 2026, 10:52am

Hi,
I have a GliNet Ax 1800 with Luci and I installed openfortivpn , the connection works until i got my email witht the code for authentication with 2FA which i cannot insert in any place.
Do you know how to connect GliNet Ax 1800 with openfortivpn and 2FA (receiving an email code) ?
Or is it not possible?
Is there any other plugin ? I just downloaded the openfortivpn through the official repo and I know that I cannot update my device because then I loose support with this plugin.
Currently I have fw 4.5.0.
Thanks in advance to share your expierence.

Hi

According to the openfortivpn documentation, 2FA appears to be supported through the --otp parameter.

          To login using SAML you just have to open
          `<your-vpn-domain>/remote/saml/start?redirect=1' and follow the login steps.
          At the end of the login process, the page will be redirected to
          `http://127.0.0.1:8020/?id=<session-id>'. The actual URL to use for the login,
          including the optional realm, is printed to the terminal when the web server it started.

          Set the amount of time to wait before sending the One-Time-Password.
          The delay time must be specified in seconds, where 0 means
