IBM has released several new features in the Mobile Device Management Fixlet Site for IBM Tivoli Endpoint Manager.
- Nitrodesk Touchdown support
The TEM Agent now integrates with Nitrodesk Touchdown. This allows TEM to control a richer set of configurations on Android devices, such as selective wipe, and security polices like password length, encryption etc.
- Google Cloud Messaging
The Android agent can now use Google Cloud Messaging to provide much quicker response times to action commands.
- Proxy Agent enhancements
The Proxy Agent now supports almost all ‘Take Action Dialog’ constraints, action locking as well as custom site subscription.
- Data Usage Reporting
The iOS app can now report a device’s data usage information for the past 3 months.
- Expanded Configuration Options for Authenticated Enrollment
Authenticated Enrollment and the Self Service Portal can now be configured to filter access according to group membership, and now supports additional advanced LDAP configurations (such as anonymous binding).
- Numerous other fixes and improvements.
To take advantage of these new features, please take the following actions:
- Update any deployed Trusted Services Provider with Fixlet ID 200: Upgrade Trusted Services Provider.
- Update any Exchange or iOS Management Extenders using their associated upgrade Fixlets (ID 94 or 93).
