However at any time you can also search for a mobile number or address by entering this in the top right hand corner. Alternatively, you can click on the advanced search option and search for all the users with a certain make/model of device The Telstra MDM portal will then search for the mobile number and display a picture of the handset model associated with that mobile number. Telstra Mobile Device Management Guide Android Page 9

10 Search Problem Resolution The device cannot be found Check that the mobile number has a Mobile Connect plan activated Check that the mobile number belongs to the Telstra billing account number you are using to login. That is, if you logged into Telstra MDM using the mobile billing account number , check that the mobile number you are searching for is being billed under that Telstra account number. Telstra automatically refreshes mobile number information each night, and if a Mobile Connect plan is activated, this mobile number will be displayed the following day. Device model is shown as unknown If the serial number of the device is missing contact Telstra support at wireless@team.telstra.com to correct. If the serial number of the device is present, the device model being used is not supported by the Telstra MDM portal. For a list of supported device models see Should a user swap devices, Telstra automatically refreshes handset information each night and it will be displayed the following day. If you believe the mobile number or handset model is not being displayed correctly please contact the Telstra MDM helpdesk at wireless@team.telstra.com Telstra Mobile Device Management Guide Android Page 10

11 Device Enrolment Enrolment is a process of establishing authentication between the device and the Telstra MDM portal. A device MUST be successfully enrolled before the Telstra MDM portal can then send settings and policies to the device. To enrol a device: From the configuration tab, click on the send button next to the Telstra Install DM setting and the server will send an SMS to the mobile user requesting they download a client. The mobile user will receive an SMS with a link and will need to download the software client and install and run this software on their device. Under the Recent Actions panel on the Telstra MDM Portal the status of will be shown. If the client is correctly installed by the user you will see status will go from pending>sent>success. You will also notice the screen showing the vital signs of the device eg battery, memory, coverage information become visible after the device has been successfully enrolled. Telstra Mobile Device Management Guide Android Page 11

12 Recent Actions Status Meaning The Telstra MDM server is in the process of sending the message to the device. If the status remains frozen in pending it means that the Telstra MDM server is having trouble sending the message The Telstra MDM server has sent the message to the device and is waiting for a Telstra Mobile Device Management Guide Android Page 12

13 response If the status remains frozen in sent it means the message has not been delivered OR the handset is not responding to the message. The transaction was successful and the device has reported that the setting has been successful The transaction was unsuccessful either because the handset rejected the message OR the server timed out after 3 minutes Important: To install the Telstra MDM client, the device must be setup to allow the installation of nonmarket applications. Some devices also require an SD card to be present and other settings to be enabled/disabled eg disable data manager Enrolment only needs to be done once for each mobile device (unless the user chooses to remove the client or wipe the device, in that case the process will need to be repeated for that device). The client MUST be running on the device for the Telstra MDM server to be able to successfully communicate with it. The user must open and run the client after it is installed. By default the client will start running whenever the user powers-up the device. If the user deletes the client, it must be re-installed so the Telstra MDM server can communicate with the device. The Telstra MDM server will timeout after 3 minutes if it does not receive a successful notification from the device client that it has been installed and is running. Device Diagnostics After a device has been successfully enrolled, the IT administrator can then view information about that particular device eg firmware version etc. From the Diagnostic screen click Check All The Telstra MDM portal will then query the device for diagnostics Once successful, information about the device will be available from the Diagnostics>Details tab. Connection settings on the device will also be retrieve and shown on the Diagnostics>Settings tab Telstra Mobile Device Management Guide Android Page 13

14 To refresh the diagnostic information click the Check All button and the server will request an updated set of values. Telstra Mobile Device Management Guide Android Page 14

15 Deploy Enterprise Software The Telstra MDM portal allows you to upload enterprise software for Android devices (.apk files) and then send these to users for installation. An enterprise application can also be uninstalled and you can query the device for a list of software. Upload Enterprise Software From the Administration>Software>Add screen input the following items: Manufacturer/Model Software Name (this must NOT contain any spaces) *.apk file to upload (this filename must NOT contain any spaces) Software version number (optional) Click Add Install Enterprise Software Once the enterprise software has been uploaded, it can then be installed onto the relevant device make/model. From the Diagnostic>Software>Install Software tab a list of uploaded software will be shown for that particular make/model. Select the Install option and click Send The Telstra MDM portal will then send the software to the device and prompt the user to install. Telstra Mobile Device Management Guide Android Page 15

16 The Telstra MDM server will return a successful result once the software is available for the user to install. It is up to the user to install the software on their device when prompted and the Telstra MDM server cannot force an install. Important: Software installation will fail if the device rejects the file. The *.apk file needs to be compatible with the device you are trying to install it on. When uploading the software, the name and filename must NOT contain any spaces otherwise the installation of the software will fail on the device. It is up to the user to install the software on their device once they receive a pop-up. The Telstra MDM server cannot force an install. The Telstra MDM server will signal a success when the software arrives on the device, not when the software is installed on the device. Telstra Mobile Device Management Guide Android Page 16

17 Query Software After the Telstra MDM portal has successfully installed enterprise software on a device, you can query the device to view it s software inventory. From the Diagnostic>Software tab click Check Software. The Telstra MDM portal will then query the device and return a list of software that has been installed by the Telstra MDM portal. Important: The device will return all software applications on the device that have been sent via the Telstra MDM server, side loaded or downloaded from the Android market. It will NOT return software loaded onto the SD card Uninstall Software After the Telstra MDM portal has installed enterprise software, this software can be uninstalled from the device silently without user interaction. From the Diagnostic>Software>Uninstall Software tab click Uninstall The user will be prompted to uninstall the software from the device Telstra Mobile Device Management Guide Android Page 17

18 Important: It is up to the user to un-install the software on their device once they receive a pop-up. The Telstra MDM server cannot force the application to be removed. The Telstra MDM server will signal a success when the user accepts or declines the request to un-install the software ie if the user chooses to cancel the request this will be shown as a success. Security Lock The lock feature will allow an administrator to remotely lock the device when in coverage and the Telstra MDM client is running. This will bring up a lock screen and make the device unusable until it is unlocked again by the Telstra MDM portal. Go to Diagnostics>Security tab Click lock device button If you want the device to start screaming like a burglar alarm click screaming Click Send Telstra Mobile Device Management Guide Android Page 18

19 Note: Once locked, the mobile user will see a lock screen. The device will not be usable until an unlock request is sent via the Telstra MDM portal ie the user will not be able to make calls(other than emergency calls), answer calls or use the device. Telstra Mobile Device Management Guide Android Page 19

20 Wipe The IT administrator can remotely wipe sensitive data on the device and SD card at any time when the device is in coverage and the Telstra MDM client is running. The Telstra MDM portal will lock the device so it is unusable and will wipe the following data: Call logs SMS Internal memory videos Internal memory images ActiveSync account Contacts Calendar SD card To wipe the device Go to Diagnostics>Security tab Click wipe device button Note: This is NOT a full wipe eg device connection settings and software applications will remain on the device. Rather it will wipe confidential items like sms/call logs, calendar, contacts, pictures/video, ActiveSync and SD card. The device will be locked and unusable until the Telstra MDM server unlocks Unlock The unlock feature allows you to remove the Telstra MDM device lock screen when the device is in coverage. Telstra Mobile Device Management Guide Android Page 20

21 Go to Diagnostics>Security tab Click unlock device button Managing Groups of Users The Telstra MDM Portal has a feature that allows companies to group employees into different lines of business so that they are easier to manage and report on. This can be useful when you want to give one group of employee s different IT policies than other groups for example. It is up to each company to decide how they want to group and mange employees, however a typical structure could look like this Company Acme Co Ltd Business Unit Sales Finance Line of Business Northern Southern Operations Telstra Mobile Device Management Guide Android Page 21

22 In this example, settings or software could be pushed to all employee devices in a company, business unit or line of business. Making Use of Groups Groups can be used in the following ways to manage your employee devices Software applications can be uploaded so they are only available to employees in certain groups You can create different logins for administrators so they only have access to manage certain employees. For example, you could create a login for your sales operation team administrator and they will only be able to see and manage the sales people. You can run reports against different groups You can schedule bulk batch jobs to provision devices in certain groups Add auto-provisioning rules for employees in groups ie automatically adding a password policy Create a New Group Goto Administration>Group>Add Enter a group name and description. The group name must NOT have any spaces Select the roles the group has (select all roles) To view your group hierarchy Got administration>group>group Search Click Search Telstra Mobile Device Management Guide Android Page 22

23 Move Users between Groups Once a group has been created, you can move one or more employees into this new group Goto administration>bulk Ops and search for the employees you want to move Select the employee(s) you want to move and the group you want to move them to Creating New User Logins By default, Telstra will create a single user login for your company when requested. This user login will be given the maximum privileges allowable The user login will be a 10 digit number that matches your Telstra billing account. However, each person who is authorised to manage devices should have their own user login and you can create and manage your own user logins. When creating a user login there are two considerations 1. What privileges do you want to give this login 2. What group of devices do you want this user login to manage ie all devices or just a single group of devices Telstra Mobile Device Management Guide Android Page 23

24 Assigning User Login Roles and Privileges Below is a summary of the roles and associated privileges you can give when setting up a new user login User Login Role CORP_ADMIN Administrator CORP_VIEW Supervisor Privileges assigned This role has the maximum privileges that can be assigned to a user login. It will allow a person to perform the following tasks Search for mobile users Enrol devices and send settings to devices Perform administration tasks: o Run reports o Upload software o Create new Groups and move devices between groups o Create new user logins This role has a reduced set of privileges and will allow a person to perform the following tasks: Search for mobile users Enrol devices and send settings to devices Assigning User Login Groups When a new user login is created, this can be assigned to a group or groups. When a user login is assigned to a specific group it can only manage and see employees under that group. For example, in the diagram below, user login #1 can manage all devices in the company, user login #2 can manage only devices at the business unit level, and user login #3 can only manage devices at the line of business level. Company User Login #1 Business Unit User Login #2 Line of Business User Login #3 Telstra Mobile Device Management Guide Android Page 24

25 Creating New User Logins Goto Administration>Users>Add Complete these fields and then click Add User s first name and last name User s address The user login The user login password The role you want to give the user login (either CORP_ADMIN or CORP_VIEW depending on privileges you want to give) The group of devices you want the user login to manage After successfully adding a new user login, that person will receive an with their login details. Auto-Provisioning Rules The Telstra MDM Portal allows you to setup auto-provisioning rules for devices in a particular group or groups. Immediately after a device is successfully enrolled, an auto-provisioning rule can be triggered that will automatically send software application(s) to the device. For example, if you wanted a device to always have an enterprise software application installed after enrolment, an auto-provisioning rule allows you to enforce this. Goto administration>groups and search for the group you want to apply the auto-provisioning rule for. Click on the group name. Select the Auto Install Link Telstra Mobile Device Management Guide Android Page 25

26 Select the configuration software you want to be automatically provisioned on devices in the group NB: The auto provisioning rule is only triggered immediately after a device has been successfully enrolled. Reporting From the Admin Reports screen, standard reports are available. Once a report has been run, data can be exported to a.csv file for further manipulation. All reports can be run on an ad-hoc basis(ie as needed). The command history report can also be run on a recurring basis(ie daily, weekly, monthly). To run an adhoc report: Go to Administration>Reports Click the add (+) link in the Ad-hoc report row Select the report you want to run Telstra Mobile Device Management Guide Android Page 26
