Configuring the AirWatch MDM

To configure the AirWatch MDM:

1.Enroll devices in the MDM using the methods supported by the MDM.

2.Create a profile with the following MDM management options:

•Certificate template- Create a configuration that specifies the field and type of identifier for client device certificates.
The MDM configuration templates provide flexibility in how the device identifier can be placed in the device certificate’s subject or alternative subject. We recommend you include the user ID in the certificate, so the certificate can identify both the user and the device. For example:

•CN=<EnrollmentUser>, serialNumber=<DeviceUid>, o=Company

•Credential profile- Create a configuration that specifies the certificate authority and certificate template configuration.

•Wi-Fi profile- Create a configuration that specifies the SSID, security options, and the credential configuration.

3.Save and deploy the profile to devices registered with your organization.

4.Enable API access and generate the AirWatch API key (tenant code).

The tenant code is part of the REST API configuration. The tenant code must be included in PPS MDM server configuration.
