  • Device Configuration Template - This allows you to create templates containing device settings like firmware and embedded applications.
  • Device Policies - Device policies help you create policies that monitor device compliance. The policy uses configuration templates to apply or check the desired templates to devices daily. For example, you want to create a policy implementing that a group of devices must be using a specific firmware version, create the firmware template, and use the template to create your firmware policy.

    • Configuration Policy - This allows you to create policies using the SDP and XDP.

    • Firmware Policy - This allows you to create policies using firmware templates.

    • Embedded Policy - This allows you to create policies using embedded application templates.
