Working with default policies

Default policies are the policies applied to a device automatically when it is registered. Default policy values are also used as a starting point when you create a custom policy. MobileIron provides the values for each default policy specification. It is recommended that you create your own policies. You can use the settings in the default policies as a starting point. If you do edit a default policy’s values (not recommended), those new values become the starting point when you create a new custom policy.

Unlike configurations, a device can have only one policy of each type.

MobileIron Core provides defaults for the following policy types:

• Security (Refer to Getting Started with MobileIron Core for details.)
• Privacy (Refer to Getting Started with MobileIron Core for details.)
• Lockdown (Refer to Getting Started with MobileIron Core for details.)
• Sync (Refer to Getting Started with MobileIron Core for details.)
• ActiveSync (See “Working with ActiveSync policies” in the .)
• AppConnect global policy (Refer to the MobileIron Core AppConnect and AppTunnel Guide for MobileIron Core.)

NOTE:

You cannot delete default policies.

The default settings for each policy type are listed in the section for each type.
