Enrolling Android Enterprise Devices using SOTI MobiControl Stage Programmer

About this task

To provision Android Enterprise devices using SOTI MobiControl Stage Programmer:

Procedure

  1. Make a note of the enrollment ID of the add devices policy you want to use for these devices.
    If you haven't created an add devices policy yet, follow the steps in Creating an Android Enterprise Device Policy.
  2. Download the SOTI MobiControl Stage Programmer app from the Google Play Store onto a master device.
    The master device does not need to be enrolled into SOTI MobiControl.
  3. Launch the SOTI MobiControl Stage Programmer app and fill in the fields.
    WiFi Configuration Enter the network name, security type and password for the WiFi connection that you want the receiving devices to use.
    Proxy Configuration [Optional] If you want the receiving devices to use a proxy server, enter the PAC URL or the proxy host address and port number.
    Device Details Configuration Enter any device details that you want automatically configured on the device such as locale and time zone.
    SOTI MobiControl Enrollment ID Enter the enrollment ID of the add devices rule whose settings you want to apply to the receiving devices.
  4. Click QR Code to generate a QR code or NFC to prepare the master device to provision other devices.
    Tip: Print the QR code if you don't want to keep the master device awake while provisioning new devices.
  5. Turn on a receiving device. Do not proceed past the Welcome screen.
    • If using NFC, gently bump the master device against the receiving device.
    • If using a QR code, tap the Welcome screen of the device six times in the same spot to launch the camera, then scan the QR code.
    The receiving device will connect to the configured WiFi network and download the enrollment settings to complete the device setup process and launch the SOTI MobiControl Android Enterprise agent.
  6. Repeat with the rest of your devices.

Results

Your devices are now enrolled in SOTI MobiControl.

Note: If you want to provision devices with different settings or another add devices rule, clear the existing information from the SOTI MobiControl Stage Programmer app and fill in the fields with the new information.
