Hi Azure Team,

We are implementing Intune policy with Entra ID connector tool and connecting Intune connector, but in windows 2012 r2 we can't locate the "Enable automatic MDM enrollment using default Microsoft Entra credentials" in GPM.

My question is : Is windows server 2012 r2 support MDM Polices.

Your prompt response is highly appreciated.

Best Regards,

Nitin Arora

    @Nitin Arora, Thanks for posting in Q&A. For the administrative Template on windows server 2012 r2. It does not have this policy. You can download the latest admx and copy it to central store to get this policy on DC. Here is a link with more details:

    Hope the above information can help.

    Hello,

    Thank you for posting in the Microsoft Community forum.

    According to my research, Windows Server 2012 R2 does not support Mobile Device Management (MDM) policies. The MDM feature, as well as certain policies such as "Enable automatic MDM registration with Default Microsoft Entra credentials," are primarily targeted at end-user client operating systems, such as Windows 10/11, rather than server operating systems.

    If you need to manage Windows Server 2012 R2 devices, you might consider using Microsoft Defender for Endpoint (MDE) for security management policies.

    For more information, please follow this article:

    Windows Server devices managed by Defender for Endpoint now recognized as a new OS platform - Microsoft Community Hub

    Best regards

    Jacen
