Recent Admin Console Updates

Looks like some pretty big updates in the Console. I have yet to dig deep into them though.

The Admin console has been updated with the following changes to user and device settings, which require version 37 or above:

• A new method to provision and manage client certificates on Chrome devices to enable access to certain enterprise networks and web resources.
• A new option to manage multiple sign-in access. Please read the article carefully and choose the appropriate option for your organization by the end of September 2014.
• A new option to determine the default download location.
• A new option to set the wallpaper.
• Devices that are forced to re-enroll back into a domain will be blocked from entering developer mode.

Check out the blog post.

Most notable, multiple sign-in access, wallpaper setting and last but most important.. devices not being allowed to be in dev mode. So it looks like if we want to wipe and re-enroll we HAVE to use the flash drive way? Not sure if I like it (because users can't get around re-enrollement anyways, right??). And students can easily get a flash drive image..but maybe it prevents them from doing other work arounds via dev mode. More to come when I investigate..
