Sccm For Mac Client

admin



When you are frequently deploying devices without a build-in network device, like MS Surfaces, DELL XPS devices and tablets, you know the burden of using USB-Ethernet adapters. These devices have their own MAC-address and when used repeatedly, you constantly have to remove the old devices to add new devices for deployment. Before SCCM CB version 1610 you could add these MAC-addresses to the registry by adding them to “ExcludeMACaddress” under: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftSMSComponents SMS_DISCOVERY_DATA_MANAGER

A major shortcoming of SCCM is the way it provides for integrating Macs into the corporate IT environment. The procedure offered for integrating new Mac clients into the IT management system is to install the SCCM client program on the respective devices by hand. This is time consuming and unnecessarily cumbersome. Hi, Thank you for coming Microsoft MECM Q&A forum. Based on my experience, when using PKI, by default the SCCM agent generates a Client GUID based on a certificate in the personal Computer store, please help double check the client certificates.

From CB 1610 on you can now add these USB-Ethernet adapters to the field “Duplicate hardware identifiers”. The idea behind this is that you don’t have to remove the devices, associated with certain USB-Ethernet adapters, anymore. Underneath a short tutorial on how to add MAC-Addresses to the “Duplicate hardware identifiers”

Step 1. Open your Systemt Center Configuration Manager console and go to “Administration > Overview > Site Configuration > Sites” and left-click on “Hierarchy Settings” in the ribbon.

Step 2. Click on the tab “Client Approval and Conflicting Records”

Now you can keep using your USB-Ethernet adapters without removing the old associations with the devices you used them on before.
