Integrating Environment Manager with Ivanti Neurons

Application Control works with Ivanti Neurons in Hybrid mode to allow Ivanti Neurons to deploy configurations created and managed in Application Control and saved in Ivanti Neurons.

Integration Workflow

Environment Manager integrates with Ivanti Neurons to save and deploy configurations. Environment Manager can use Ivanti Neurons to save and deploy configurations to target devices through agent policies. Use Environment Manager to create, update, and save configurations.

Neurons

  1. Create an App Registration in Ivanti Neurons.

    You must copy or record the generated settings; they will not be shown again, and they are required to complete the authentication process in Environment Manager.

    • Neurons Auth URL: The authorization URL for Ivanti Neurons.

    • Client ID: The Client ID for Ivanti Neurons.

Application Control

  1. Create Configurations, or edit an existing configuration in one of the following ways:

    1. Edit an on-premise configuration by clicking File > Open and selecting a configuration.

    2. Edit a configuration from Ivanti Neurons by clicking File > Open > Configuration from Ivanti Neurons.

      Environment Manager will prompt you to log in to Ivanti Neurons when you click File > Open > Configuration from Ivanti Neurons.

  2. Authenticate with Ivanti Neurons:

    1. Click Configuration from Ivanti Neurons from either File > Open or File > Save As to open the Ivanti Neurons Login dialog box.

    2. Enter the Authorization URL and Client ID that was generated in the Ivanti Neurons app registration. See Step 1.
    3. Click Login to open your Ivanti Neurons tenant.
    4. Enter your Ivanti Neurons credentials, and click Sign In to open the Environment Manager Configuration tab.

      5. Save a configuration to Neurons from Environment Manager

  3. Save the configuration to Ivanti Neurons:

    1. Click New and enter a Name and Description.

    2. If you are updating a configuration, choose Update.

      When overwriting an existing configuration, Environment Manager updates the version number of the file to preserve configuration history.

Neurons

  1. Return to Ivanti Neurons to create an Agent Policy and Agent Policy Groups so you can deploy your configuration.

  2. Download Install Ivanti Neurons Default Agent on your target devices, enabling them to register with Neurons Devices when the Default Agent next checks in.

  3. Create an Agent Policy Group.

  4. Add devices to the Agent Policy Group.

  5. Create a new Agent Policy for deployment to the Agent Policy Group.

    1. Select the Environment Manager capability.

    2. Select the Environment Manager configuration that you want to assign for deployment.

  6. Ivanti Neurons Agent deploys the new Agent Policy to the devices you included in the Agent Policy Group.
