Overview of configuring Standalone Sentry for email

Standalone Sentry is a component of a MobileIron deployment that provides secure access to your company’s ActiveSync server, such as a Microsoft Exchange Server.

You configure Standalone Sentry for email in the MobileIron Core Admin Portal. Configuring Standalone Sentry for email is a two-step process.

1. Configure a Standalone Sentry for ActiveSync in the MobileIron Core Admin Portal.
2. Create an Exchange setting in the MobileIron Core Admin Portal, which points to the Standalone Sentry.

Despite its name, you configure an Exchange app setting regardless of whether your ActiveSync server is a Microsoft Exchange Server or another type of ActiveSync server, such as a Lotus Domino server.
