Before you begin


This Quick-start Guide provides basic instructions for setting up an instance of the Symantec Mobile Management solution. The Symantec Mobile Management 7.2 Implementation Guide provides detailed instructions to help you install, configure, and manage mobile devices with Symantec Mobile Management 7.2. The latest version of the guide is available atwww.symantec.com/docs/DOC5662 This document may be updated to improve quality and accuracy. For the latest version of this document, go to http://www.symantec.com/docs/DOC5665 This guide makes the following assumptions:

Getting started with Symantec Mobile Management 7.2 Before you begin

You have a working instance of Symantec Management Platform installed on qualified equipment. For more information about the system requirements and other installation topics for Symantec Management Platform, see the Symantec Management Platform Installation Guide at http://www.symantec.com/docs/DOC4798. Your instance of the platform includes Microsoft .NET 3.5. Note: The prerequisite checker for Mobile Management 7.2 requires .NET 3.5. You have either a commercial certificate authority or a self-administered certificate authority available to generate the necessary trust certificates. For more information, see Symantec Mobile Management certificate distribution in the Symantec Mobile Management 7.2 Implementation Guide at http://www.symantec.com/docs/DOC3493. Note: Root certificates are only required when you use a non-commercial certificate authority. If you choose to use SSL, you must have the Server Authentication Certificate or root certificate installed. The following table lists the trust certificates that are required for each component.

Note: Symantec Mobile Management Server and


Symantec Management Platform Server provide the tickets.

The SCEP server instance is configured to provide the Network Device Enrollment Service (NDES) role or Symantec MPKI. Make sure that your network conforms to the following additional requirements:

The server is joined to an Active Directory domain and the domain has a Certificate Authority available. You have reconfigured the server role to use the Network Device Enrollment Service (NDES) role (and not the Certificate Authority role service). You have installed IIS, which is required for the NDES. The NDES user account is established in the local IIS_IUSERS group. Establishing this account is a prerequisite for making the NDES account assignment. You restart the server after you make the configuration changes.

For instructions to set up SCEP for use by Symantec Mobile Management, see the Symantec Knowledge Base article How to set up a SCEP Server for use by Mobile Management Solution 7.1 at http://www.symantec.com/docs/HOWTO64210. For more information about implementing NDES/SCEP on Windows Server 2008 R2, see the Microsoft SCEP Implementation Whitepaper at http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=1607.

To manage iOS 5 devices, you have SSL configured in your environment and have set up a Mobile Device Management Certificate. Observe the following additional requirements:

You can use a commercial certificate (CA) or a certificate generated in-house. You must use a CA server to generate an in-house certificate.

Highlight the server you added in Step 3, and in the Mobile Management Server Settings pane select the options you require, as follows:

Enable Authentication Check. If you check this option, you must enter your server information. The server information is used to validate the user name and password from the agents enrollment page. If you do not check this option, users without credentials can enroll their device and access content and information in the Mobile Management Agent. You can also enter a list of Allowed Groups. The allowed groups are AD or LDAP groups. If you enter a list of groups in this field, only users in those groups can enroll. Enter the groups with a pipe character between them; for example, Sales|Engineering|Marketing. Allow Jailbroken Devices. If you check this option, any device that fails the jailbreak test during enrollment is not managed. Jailbroken devices can enroll, but they cannot see content in the Mobile Library. Require EULA acceptance. If you check this option, any user who does not accept the End User Licensing Agreement (EULA) is not enrolled. Therefore, the server does not manage that user. Minimum OS Version. Devices with operating system versions that are earlier than the values in the fields on this page are not allowed to enroll. These fields default to the earliest OS version of each OS that are supported by Mobile Management. You can only set a single value for all devices of
