Assign Configuration Profiles to Selected Devices
Click 'Devices' > 'Device List' > 'Device Management' > select a device > Click 'Manage Profiles'
- The 'Device Management' interface lets you view the configuration profiles in effect on selected devices. You can also apply new configuration profiles or remove profiles.
- Profiles applied from this interface will be added to any existing profiles on the device (such as profiles from a device group or user group).
- If
the settings in a profile clash with those in another profile,
Endpoint Manager follows the 'Most
Restrictive' policy. For example, if a profile allows the use of the
camera and another restricts its use, the device will not be able to
use the camera.
