needs to be enrolled, launch a web browser and go to the MDM
server URL. If a ppkg package is present on
the MDM server and bulk enroll had been configured as TRUE, the
following screen appears.
- If LDAP Authentication is on, enter an email address and Password that is associated with a valid AD set of credentials and click Enroll.
- If LDAP authentication is off, just click Enroll.
- Click the downloaded ppkg file; the enrollment process begins.
- Ensure the prerequisites are met. On a Windows device which
