Step 1c: Granting Certification Authority Permission to Revoke a Device Enrollment (Optional)

10/3/2008

The following procedures will provide the domain certification authority permission to revoke a device enrollment from the company network. This step is optional, unless you have chosen to install your System Center Mobile Device Manager (MDM) certificate templates and MDM certificates manually. The /enabletemplates parameter automatically performs this procedure during the MDM Active Directory® configuration.
