  - **Note:** Multiple Duo policies can be configured in order to provide different user groups with Duo authentication method options (mobile, email, etc. as preferred).
2. When users are assigned to this authentication policy, they will encounter a Duo menu after entering a username. If the Duo account is configured for enrollment, then the first time a user logs in they will need to set up their mobile application to associate with this method.
