1. Log in to csp.infoblox.com.
2. Go to Manage > Endpoints > Endpoint Groups.
3. Select Download MDM Configuration, and click iOS Config File or Android Config File, depending on the type of the device the file is to be used with.

The MDM app config contains the following parameters:

• joinToken: The value in the XML file.
• groupName: In the Cloud Services Portal, the name of the group to which the endpoint will be moved. If the name is not present in the Cloud Services Portal, it will be added to the All BloxOne Endpoints group.
• userId: The unique name used to identify a mobile device. The configured name is displayed in the Cloud Services Portal, on the Manage > Endpoints page.
• allowServiceControl: By default, this value will be True. To disallow and hide service control, use the toggle switch to change this value to False. 

In MDM, the app config can be added manually or by uploading the XML file.
