In this guide, we are going to learn how to install SkypeShield's dedicated app for MobileIron

MDM integration has 2 types of behaviors:

  • Conditional Registration - Limiting registration only to managed devices by the MDM vendor.
  • Conditional Access -  Consistent validation that the device is managed and did not become out of compliance.

Regarding Conditional Access SkypeShield can function according to the following approaches:

  • WiFi - Registration can only be done from and a WiFi network that requires a certificate in order to connect to. The certificate is managed by the MDM.
  • SkypeShield Application -  Registration can be performed only by using a specific SkypeShield (SkS) app, that is only available from the corporate store/catalog to the devices that are managed.

Prerequisites

Before we begin the installtion we need to make sure we have a SkypeShield app package containing:

  • SkypeShield_MobileIron.ipa
  • SkypeShield_MobileIron.apk
  • AppConfig.txt

Important Notes:

Due to technology limitation, the implementation of iOS and Android apps is different.

  • For Android deployment, please send over the lyncdiscover URL over to support@agatsoftware.com.
  • For iOS deployment, it is required to edit the AppConfig.txt file and change the company name and default host field with the appropriate values.
