1. In the console tree, open the User accounts folder.

   The User accounts folder is a subfolder of the Advanced folder by default.

2. In the workspace, double-click the user account for which you want to disable two-step verification.

   For all user accounts for which two-step verification is enabled, the 2FA required column is set to Yes.

3. In the Properties: <user name> window that opens, select the Two-step verification section.
4. In the Two-step verification section, select the following options:
   • If you want to disable two-step verification for a user account, click the Disable button.
   • If you want to exclude this user account from two-step verification, select the User can pass authentication by using user name and password only option.
5. Click the Apply button.
6. Click the OK button.

Two-step verification for a user account is disabled.

If you want to restore access for a user that cannot log in to Administration Console by using two-step verification, disable two-step verification for this user account and select the User can pass authentication by using user name and password only option in the Two-step verification as described above. After that, log in to Administration Console under the user account for which you disabled two-step verification, and then enable verification again.
