IKEv2 peculiarity

Subject: IKEv2 peculiarity Good day from Singapore, When I wanted to use Email OTP 2FA MFA, IKEv2 doesn't allow it. When I changed from IKEv2 to IKEv1 (main mode, not aggressive), Email OTP is allowed. I don't understand it. IKEv2 is a newer protocol than IKEv1. Why isn't Email OTP allowed in IKEv2? I am currently configuring IPsec road warrior VPN tunnels in Fortigate firewalls.
