MDM options device policy 编辑

You can create a device policy in XenMobile to manage Find My Phone/iPad Activation Lock on supervised iOS 7.0 and later phone devices. For the steps on setting an iOS device to supervised mode, see To place an iOS device in Supervised mode by using the Apple Configurator.

Activation Lock is a feature of Find My iPhone/iPad that prevents reactivation of a lost or stolen supervised device. Activation Lock requires the user Apple ID and password before anyone can turn off Find My iPhone/iPad, erase the device, or reactivate the device. For the devices that your organization owns, bypassing an Activation Lock is necessary to, for example, reset or reallocate devices.

To enable Activation Lock, you configure and deploy the XenMobile MDM Options device policy. You can then manage a device from the XenMobile console without the Apple credentials of the user. To bypass the Apple credential requirement of an Activation Lock, issue the Activation Lock Bypass security action from the XenMobile console.

For example, if the user returns a lost phone or to set up the device before or after a Full Wipe: When the phone prompts for the iTunes account credential, you can bypass that step by issuing the Activation Lock Bypass security action from the XenMobile console.

To add or configure this policy, go to Configure > Device Policies. For more information, see Device policies.

An Activation Lock Bypass allows you to remove the Activation Lock from supervised devices prior to device activation without knowing the Apple ID and password of the device users. You can send an Activation Lock Bypass to a device before or after a Full Wipe. For more information, see Bypass an iOS activation lock in the Security actions article.
