Settings synchronization

The Basic MDM client synchronizes settings with the DME server at every scheduled sync. The following settings can be set for the Basic MDM client.

• User name

  The user's ability to change the user name depends on the setting Device allowed to switch user on the server. See Anonymous users.

• Phone number

  The Basic MDM client is able to retrieve the phone number of the device by sending an SMS to the server's SMS modem, which responds with the number from which the SMS was sent. The phone number is necessary for SMS-based features, including DM actions, to work correctly on the device.

Please refer to Appendix A - General settings for a description for the following settings (see General settings):

• Server path (can be changed on device if permitted)
• Launch on startup (can be changed on device if permitted)
• GPRS timeout (can be changed on device if permitted)
• Network push active (can be changed on device if permitted)
• Network push path (can be changed on device if permitted)
• Log traffic
• Background sync. when roaming
• Network push when roaming

Apart from these settings, certain device specific settings may exist on the client (such as access points sequence on Symbian devices).

Please refer to Appendix A -Security settings for a description for the following settings (see Security settings):

• Action on SIM card change (can be changed on device if permitted)
• Prevent uninstall of DME client
• Require trusted certificate

Furthermore, all settings in the File sync. and Scheduled sync. sections are synchronized with the server, and they can be changed on the client (see File sync. settings and Scheduled sync. settings).
