Shared Device Configuration

Use the Shared Device Configuration dialog box to configure how shared devices behave when accessed by authorized users.

Note: Settings may differ depending on the selected device family.


Override Settings Inherited from Parent Group	Select this check box to ignore settings inherited from parent device groups.
Enable Shared Device Configuration	Select this check box to enable the Shared Device advanced configuration.
Choose an Identity Management System Directory Service Identity Provider	Click the to select either a Directory Services or a Identity Provider connection from the dropdown list. If you haven't configured a directory service or IdP, you can set up a new connection by clicking Manage Directories. Refer to Identity Management for instructions on how to associate your identity management system with SOTI MobiControl. Note: Shared devices do not work with Azure AD.
`User Group Mapping`	Use this table to map user groups to the device groups they'll move into once a user from that user group logs into the device. Each user group can be mapped to a different destination device group, with different terms and conditions. For example, you can specify that the devices logged into by users in the `IT` user group should move to `Group B` upon login. Group B has lockdown and some feature control options configured. Then, specify that users in the `Sales` user group should move to `Group C` which has lockdown and VPN profile configurations applied, as well as a more frequent check in schedule.
Relocate device back to home device group on logout: `home group`	Enable this option to send the device back to its original group once the device user logs out. Settings and configurations specific to the destination group will be removed and instead the settings and configurations of the home group will reapply.
Clear managed application data when user logs out	Android Plus only. Enable this option to delete all data from applications installed by SOTI MobiControl, when a device user logs out of Shared Device mode. Note: Email account data is always cleared regardless of whether this option is selected or not.
Remove managed applications when user logs out	iOS only. Enable this option to uninstall any applications that were installed by SOTI MobiControl from the device when the device user logs out of Shared Device mode. Note: Email account data is always cleared regardless of whether this option is selected or not.
Disable device passcode when user logs out	Enable this option to clear the passcode from the device once the device user logs out. Note: This option is only supported on iOS devices and Samsung devices running Android 7.0 or later.
