The following figure shows the system configuration that links an MDM system to manage smart devices.
After you have set up the MDM linkage configuration, use the MDM Linkage Settings view of the Settings module to set the MDM linkage. When the setting is completed, information about smart devices is acquired from the MDM system according to a schedule. The smart devices whose information has been acquired are handled as discovered devices, which can be added as the management targets of JP1/IT Desktop Management.
If smart device information is updated in the MDM system, the information in JP1/IT Desktop Management is also updated when the smart device information is acquired. Therefore, when linking the MDM system, we recommend that you set the schedule to acquire information on a regular basis.
