Abstract
A method includes sending, from a mobile device management (MDM) server, a group list to a mobile device, the group list indicating a plurality of MDM groups that are available to the mobile device for enrollment. The method also includes receiving, at the MDM server, a join group request from the mobile device. The join group request indicates a group of the plurality of MDM groups. The method also includes, in response to receiving the join group request, updating, at the MDM server, group membership data to indicate that the mobile device is added to the group. The method further includes identifying, based on the group membership data at the MDM server, an action associated with the group. The method also includes sending a command from the MDM server to the mobile device to perform the action.
