MobileIron Core administrator tools overview

After installing Core, administrators can access the following administrator tools:

  • Admin Portal
  • System Manager

Admin Portal

Use the Admin Portal to manage:

  • Users, both local and LDAP
  • Devices, both employee- and company-owned
  • Configurations, settings, and policies, such as security, privacy, and synchronization policies, Wi-Fi and VPN settings, cellular connectivity and single-app mode policies
  • App distribution, including publicly available apps and apps developed n-house

The Admin Portal is installed as part of the system setup. Refer to the On-Premise Installation Guide for MobileIron Core and Enterprise Connector for installation details.

System Manager

Use the System Manager for performing configuration tasks, such as:

  • Managing network settings
  • Configuring security settings
  • Managing Core within your network infrastructure
  • Upgrading Core
  • Troubleshooting and maintenance

Refer to your System Manager Guide for information on using the System Manager.

Admin Portal and System Manager credentials

During setup, two local users having the same credentials are created, one for the Admin Portal and one for the System Manager. If you make changes to the roles or password for the Admin Portal user, the changes do not affect the System Manager user.
