Today we are excited to introduce a great new feature to Citrix Endpoint Management (CEM) called Enhanced Enrollment Profile, which will enable administrators to control Device Enrollment modes at a Delivery Group level instead of at a Global Site level. This will allow an administrator to run multiple use-cases within a single CEM site.

Previously, the Server Mode was set at a Global level that was controlled by a server property — “xms.server.mode.” This server property could have one of three values: ENT, MAM or MDM.

With Enhanced Enrollment Profile, the server property will no longer be honored, and these three server mode values (ENT, MAM, MDM), along with many other combinations, will be controlled at a Delivery Group level (specifically within our existing Enrollment Profile feature).

With the release of this feature, the functionality of existing Delivery Groups and enrolled devices are not affected. This will enable an admin to combine multiple use cases and device-migration paths within a single console. Some use cases include:

  • Mobile Device Management only
  • Mobile Device Management + Mobile Application Management
  • Mobile Application Management only
  • Corporate-owned enrollments
  • BYOD enrollments (ability to opt out of MDM enrollment)
  • Android Device Administrator enrollments to Android Enterprise enrollments migrations (Fully Managed, Work Profile, Dedicated Device)

Future phases of this feature will also allow the following use cases:

  • Multiple Gateway URL support
  • Single Factor or Multi Factor Authentication options at a Delivery Group level
  • Workspace Experience enrollment modes
  • Introduce Gateway Service support

For Existing Customers

The below table will show the automated migration path from the existing Server Property operations mode to a Delivery Group model:

Existing Server Property New Multi-Mode Settings
ENT mode with iOS Device Enrollment with Citrix MAM
ENT mode with Android Legacy device administrator with Citrix MAM
ENT mode with Android Enterprise configured Fully Managed/Work Profile with Citrix MAM
MAM mode (iOS and Android) Citrix MAM
MDM mode with iOS Device Enrollment
MDM mode with Android Legacy device administrator
MDM mode with Android Enterprise configured Fully Managed/Work Profile

The customer will not need to do anything on the server to activate this feature. All new Delivery Groups created after this feature is released will require the administrator to configure the enrollment configuration within a new enrollment profile or re-use an existing enrollment profile.
