You can set a default profile for a device based on its location in an Active Directory hierarchy.
You can set a default profile for any group in the Active Directory hierarchy. If you do not set a default profile, the device that you add inherits the default profile from the parent group.
When you add a new device to F-Secure Elements EPP, the system automatically receives information about the Active Directory structure from the new the device.
Note: F-Secure Elements EPP sets an Active Directory-based default profile only when a new computer is added. If the place of that computer in the AD hierarchy is later changed, F-Secure Elements Endpoint Protection does not assign a new Active Directory-based default profile to it.
To set a default profile for an Active Directory group:
-
- Go to Profiles and select Default profiles.
- Under Active Directory, go to the Active Directory group whose default profile you want to change.
- In the Menu column, select Change.
The Change default profile window opens.
- From the drop-down menu, select a default profile, and select Change.
Note: You can select a profile separately for F-Secure Computer Protection for Windows and F-Secure Server Protection for Windows.
