Abstract

A method of configuring a mobile device allows an administrator to select multiple installation items from a set of possible installation items to include in a deployment package. At least one of the installation items includes parameters provided by an administrator that are requested from the administrator based on a configuration file associated with the installment items. The deployment package is transferred to a mobile device and the parameter values are extracted and are used to configure the mobile device.
