Firewall (Android)
Use the firewall profile configuration to set up application-based and device-level
firewall rules. These rules help filter web/ app traffic and re-route network
traffic. The available firewall configuration options vary depending on the Android
persona used:
- Android Classic
- Android Enterprise Corporate Owned Personal Enabled (COPE)
- Android Enterprise Work Managed
See Firewall: Vendor Compatibility Matrix for the list of features
available by vendor.
Tip: To ensure full
functionality for IPv6 support, upgrade your SOTI MobiControl
device agent to version 2024.0.0 or later.
