License: Silver

If you have set up Sentry email access control, any unregistered devices that access your email system are called unmanaged devices. You define whether unmanaged devices should have access to email by default when you set up a Sentry. You can then manually allow or block email access for these devices.

The Unmanaged Devices page is updated every 5 minutes. Therefore, changes in management are not immediately reflected.

Blocking a device

1. Select the device.
2. Select Actions > Block.

The device remains blocked until you select Actions > Allow or Actions > Delete.

Unblocking a device

2. Select Actions > Allow.

The device continues to have access to email until you select Actions > Block or Actions > Delete.

Clearing a device from the device list

Procedure

The next time the device attempts to access your email system, it will reappear on this list, and you will need to repeat any Block or Allow action you previously applied to the device.
