Enrolling and Removing Mobile Devices
Before a device can be managed by Deep Freeze MDM, it must be enrolled to establish communication between the device and the Deep Freeze Cloud Console. How you enroll a device a device depends on device type (iOS, Android, or Chromebook), and some device types have multiple enrollment options.
iOS
iOS devices can be enrolled in two ways based on your requirements:
DEP Device
DEP devices are registered in the Appleā€™s Device Enrollment Program (DEP). DEP allows you to make MDM enrollment mandatory and unremovable, and also automatically installs Deep Freeze Cloud MDM during the initial device setup.
BYOD device
A BYOD device allows the user to have complete control over the mobile device. The mobile device user can install or uninstall apps or change settings as required.
Android
Android devices can be enrolled in two ways based on your requirements:
Work-Managed Device
A work-managed device allows the IT administrator to have full control over the device. A work-managed device can be configured to only allow specific apps defined by the administrator to be installed on the device.
User-Owned Device
A user-owned device allows the user to have complete control over the mobile device. The user can install or uninstall apps or change settings as required.
Chromebook
All Chromebooks are added to the system in the same manner: when Deep Freeze Cloud Console is synced to a G Suite account, all Chromebooks in that account are provisioned within the system. Deep Freeze Cloud Console has limited control over Chromebooks, but note that enrolled Chromebooks can still be managed using G Suite administrative tools.
