Connecting iOS MDM devices to AirPlay

Configure the connection to AirPlay devices to stream music, photos, and videos from an iOS MDM device to AirPlay devices. To be able to use AirPlay, the mobile device and AirPlay devices must be connected to the same wireless network. AirPlay devices include Apple TV devices (second generation or later), AirPort Express devices, speakers, TVs, and radios with AirPlay support.

Automatic connection to AirPlay devices is available for devices operating in basic control mode and for supervised devices.

To configure the connection of an iOS MDM device to AirPlay devices:

1. In the main window of Kaspersky Security Center Web Console, select Assets (Devices) → Policies & profiles. In the list of group policies that opens, click the name of the policy that you want to configure.
2. In the policy properties window, select Application settings.
3. Select iOS and go to the Device configuration section.
4. On the AirPlay card, click Settings.

   The AirPlay window opens.

5. Enable the settings using the AirPlay toggle switch.
6. In the Passwords section, click Add password.
7. In the Device field, enter the name of the AirPlay device on the wireless network.
8. In the Password field, enter the password to the AirPlay device.
9. If you want iOS MDM devices to connect only to specific AirPlay devices, create a list of allowed devices in the Allowed devices section. To do this, click Add device and specify the MAC addresses of AirPlay devices.

   Both the Wi-Fi and Ethernet address for each device must be added.

   Access to AirPlay devices that are not in the list of allowed devices is blocked. If the list of allowed devices is empty, Kaspersky Mobile Devices Protection and Management allows access to all AirPlay devices.

10. Click OK.
11. Click Save to save the changes you have made.

As a result, once the policy is applied, the user's mobile device will automatically connect to AirPlay devices to stream media.
