Creating an MTD admin

Before you configure the Threat Management Console for use with MobileIron Core, you need to create an MTD admin user, who will communicate with Core through the Threat Management Console. MobileIron suggests creating a new admin user to manage MTD.

NOTE: MobileIron recommends removing the User Portal role from the MTD admin. This role is automatically assigned to every local user.

Procedure 

  1. In the Core Admin Portal, select Devices & Users > Users.
  2. Click Add > Add new user.

    The Add New User dialog box opens.

  3. Fill out the following fields:

    • User ID: Enter a meaningful User ID such as "mtdadmin."
    • First Name: Enter the first name of the mtdadmin user.
    • Last Name: Enter the last name of the mtdadmin user.
    • Display Name: Enter a name that will be displayed.
    • Password: Enter a password.
    • Confirm Password: Confirm the password.
    • Email: Enter the email address of the mtdadmin user.
  4. Click Save.
