This guide provides step-by-step instructions for enrolling Infoblox Mobile Endpoint (EP) on iOS and Android devices using Microsoft Intune. The process includes downloading the required MDM configuration file, registering the endpoint with Microsoft Intune, and configuring the Infoblox App for deployment.

Important Notes

  • Proxy Mode Warning: The proxy mode feature has not been tested and may not function correctly.

  • Authorization Changes:

    • Older app versions will automatically update to the latest version, while new installations require updating the joinToken in the app configuration.

    • For existing devices with older version of the app, the update to latest version is automatic. For fresh installations on new devices, the joinToken should be updated in the app configuration settings.

    • Maintain both customerId and joinToken during the transition period until all devices are updated to 1.0.10 or above.

    • Future versions of the app will remove customerId; ensure that both customerId and joinToken are maintained in configurations until all devices are updated.
