System Center 2012 Configuration Manager SP1 lets you manage Windows Phone 8, Windows RT, iOS, and Android devices by using the service. Although you will be using the Windows Intune service, all the management will be done through the Configuration Manager console which lets you manage all devices through one interface.
You can help employees access their workplace apps from any location and at any time by using System Center 2012 Configuration Manager SP1 with Windows Intune. You can also control settings such as password settings and device life cycle to help protect your company’s data. Employees are still able to control their own devices by having choices whether to enroll and what apps they want to install and use on their devices.
For Windows Phone 8, Windows RT, and iOS, you can manage device life cycle, device settings, apps, and also collect hardware inventory. Windows Intune takes advantage of the management client that is built directly into the Windows RT and Windows Phone 8 platforms. For iOS, the iOS APIs are used for management. For Android devices, you can manage apps. Windows Intune uses a per-user licensing model that allows for each user up to 5 active devices to manage.

In company portals are portals that let users control their devices. The company portals are customized for devices. The company portals are where users can view and download sideloaded apps. The Windows RT and Windows Phone 8 have company portal apps that let users manage line of business apps on their devices. For iOS and Android devices, the company portal is a web portal that lets users manage line of business apps on their devices.
The company portal gives users control in configuring their devices, users can:

Using Configuration Manager and Windows Intune, you can manage user settings, hardware inventory, and device life cycle on Windows RT, Windows Phone 8, and iOS. To manage user settings for hardware inventory and device life cycle for Android, you can manage user settings that use Exchange Activesync by using the Exchange connector in Configuration Manager.
When a device is receiving security settings from both the Exchange ActiveSync and Windows Intune, the most restrictive settings apply.

You can deploy line of business apps. Users can view and download available apps to their devices through the company portal. There are two ways to deploy apps:
-
You can link to an app available in any of the stores for all the devices. You can set up links to the Windows Store, Windows Phone Store, App store, and Google Play by using the Configuration Manager console.
-
You can “sideload” a line of business app. Sideloading an app lets you distribute an app directly to a device without going through the Windows Store, Windows Phone Store, App Store, or Google Play. You can sideload an app for Windows Phone 8, Windows RT, iOS, and Android, although there are usually other requirements for an app, depending on the platform.
In order to manage devices, you will need a Windows Intune organizational account. Using your organizational account, you will create a Windows Intune subscription. You will need certificates or keys depending on what platforms you want to enable. The following steps are necessary before you can create the Windows Intune subscription.
-
Synchronizing your Active Directory with Microsoft Azure Active Directory. This lets you set up users so that they can enroll their devices. You will also need to deploy Active Directory Federated Service to enable single sign-on for users.
-
Obtain a Windows Intune organization account.
-
Obtain certificates or keys to meet prerequisites per device. Without the required certificates or keys, you cannot manage devices.
-
Create a DNS alias (CNAME record type). You have to configure a CNAME in the DNS that redirects EnterpriseEnrollment.<company domain name>.com to EnterpriseEnrollment.manage.microsoft.com. For example, if Melissa's email address is Meliss@contoso.com, the admin has to create a CNAME in DNS that redirects EnterpriseEnrollment.contoso.com to EnterpriseEnrollment.manage.microsoft.com.
Before you set up your Windows Intune subscription, you have to have synchronized your Active Directory with Azure Active Directory in order to set up users for device management.
-
Use directory synchronization to populate the account portal with synchronized users and security groups. The synchronized users and security groups are added to Windows Intune. In the Windows Intune Subscription wizard, you will specify the user collection whose users can enroll their devices for management. For more information, see Configure directory synchronization.
-
For single sign on you must deploy AD FS, see Configure single sign-on.
The following table lists the certificates or keys you will need in order to enable mobile platforms.
| Platform | Certificates or keys | Where you can get it |
|---|---|---|
|
Windows Phone 8 |
Code signing certificate: All sideloaded apps must be code-signed. |
