Hi,

while at the forum my login survives many days, also after closing the browser. The atlas requires 2fa at any login.  
Is it possible to increase the lifetime at atlas too?

Regards,  
Thomas

Hi Thomas,

While you can log in to both the forum and RIPE Atlas using a RIPE NCC Access account, they’re on different systems. Unfortunately it is not possible to increase the lifetime at Atlas to match the forum.
