Principal devices (Starter Pack only)

The Principal devices section is used to specify the principal devices that are associated with the
FindMe user and to enable provisioning for those devices. This section only displays if the Starter
Pack option key is installed.
Principal devices are devices assigned to the user by the system administrator and cannot be deleted
by the FindMe user. Note that users can add other, non-principal, devices to their FindMe profiles.
To assign a principal device, select On for the relevant device type. The page will then display the URI
that will be assigned for that user and device type. You can assign as many devices as required.
The device URI is based on a combination of the Username, FindMe ID and device type. It takes the
format <username>.<device type>@<domain portion of FindMe ID>.
For example, if the Username is Alice.Smith and the FindMe ID is asmith@example.com, then
the URI for a Movi device would be alice.smith.movi@example.com.
Each selected device is automatically provisioned (with bandwidth limits and phone book
n
information, for example) when that device registers to the VCS.
You can specify an additional principal device by setting Other device to On and then specifying
n
the required URI of the device. If required, you can add further non-principal devices by clicking Edit
user from the Edit user account page.
Any non-principal devices (including any devices added by FindMe users themselves) can be set as
n
principal devices. This has the effect of stopping the user from being to able to delete that device.
To do this, click Edit principal devices from the Edit user account page. You can then configure
which of the user's devices are principal devices.
Note that the VCS only sends provisioning information to the pre-configured device types (Movi, E20
and so on). Other principal devices added by the administrator or any other devices added by the
FindMe user are not provisioned by the VCS.
If device authentication
provisioned devices must also be set up in the local authentication database. The credential name
must be the same as account username and the credential password must be the same as the
password configured on the provisioned devices.
Note: all device address URIs are converted to lower case.
