This section describes the various settings we use within JAMF to manage endpoints, including Mac laptops, desktops, and iOS devices.

New Computer Setup - Move Into Jamf

After you receive a new computer that you have ordered from Coupa, you will need to reach out to euc-help@mit.edu (End User Computing group) and have them move the machine into the Center for Real Estate site within Jamf.

Below is a template for contacting them, or you can use this link.

Hello,

We have a new computer. Can you please move '[Serial Number]' into the Center for Real Estate site within Jamf?

Thank you,

Accessing Jamf

Go to https://casper1.mit.edu:8443/ and login using your kerberos ID. If you do not have access, you will need to contact euc-help@mit.edu for assistance. I don't believe access is controlled via a Moira group but I'm not 100% certainAccess is controlled with moira group ep-cre.

To Enroll an Endpoint

  1. Go to https://casper1.mit.edu:8443/enroll
  2. Manual enrollments do not automatically install software (covered in kb)
  3. If computer enrolled manually, it will not be automatically encrypted. Need to unencrypt then reencrypt via JAMF
    1. Can set up advanced search
    2. In the search, we can customize to show additional columns
      1. “Last Inventory Update” -> Happens once per day, and it updates the list of applications and stuff on the computer.
      2. Extension Attributes -> Custom scripts that have been written specific to MIT
      3. To force encryption on devices… computers > Policies – configure a policy. Use “IS&T Filevalut 2” for disk encryption configuration
