Samsung Knox support

The Samsung Knox Container enables the creation of a secure container for corporate apps within each device. This container secures access to corporate apps and data.

To configure support for the Samsung Knox Container:

  1. Create a Samsung Browser configuration.

    If you do not intend to specify browser behavior in the container, you can skip this step.

    See Android Samsung browser settings.

  2. Create an Exchange configuration for the container.

    If you do not intend to specify email client behavior in the container, you can skip this step.

  3. Create a Samsung Knox Container configuration.

    The Samsung Knox Container configuration will specify the Samsung Browser configuration and the Exchange configuration you created for the container.

    See Android Samsung Knox Container Settings.

  4. Create one or more labels to identify the devices that will receive the Samsung Knox Container configuration.

  5. Assign the Samsung Knox Container configuration to the appropriate labels.

    Once the configuration is present on the device, then the device begins creating the container as specified.
