Connections from managed devices

Typically, devices register with an Ivanti Neurons for MDM, which provides the devices with the configurations that allow users on the devices to access backend resources.

To view the users on managed devices that connect to your ActiveSync server or any other backend resource through Standalone Sentry, in Ivanti Neurons for MDM, go to Devices, click on a device name, then click on the Sentry tab. Information displayed on this page is updated when Standalone Sentry syncs with Ivanti Neurons for MDM.

Each unique combination of user (email account) on the device and app connecting to the backend resource displays as a separate record in the in the Sentry tab. If there are multiple accounts on the device, then each User is listed. If multiple apps are being used, then each app (User-Agent) is displayed as a separate record.
