Introduction

The following is a description of how to assign profiles to devices. There are several ways to accomplish this task, which are described below.

Assign profiles directly to a device

Either by drag and drop or by using the unit buffer, you can link a profile and a device together. The relation between them will get the status 'Waiting' until it is successfully installed.

The status of the assignment can be seen by selecting either the device or the profile in the navigation pane.

Assign profiles to a device through users

In the same way, a profile can be linked to a device, it can also be linked to a user. Any devices linked to the user at that time will have the profile assigned as well as the user. Any devices linked to the user at a later point in time will also automatically get the user's profiles.

Assign profiles to a device through groups

Groups can be linked to both devices, users, and profiles. If a group with devices is linked to a profile, all its device members will receive the profile.

If a group with users is linked to a profile, all devices linked to the group's user members will receive the profile.

This feature reduces the work for administrators significantly, and with the intelligent use of dynamic groups, devices will be automatically assigned to the correct profiles based on its properties such as hardware, software, location etc.
