Manage OEMConfig on Surface Duo 2
With Surface Duo 2, admins can remotely configure specific hardware components via a mobile device management (MDM) provider such as Microsoft Intune. Specifically, you can turn on or off the following components:
- Camera
- Microphone
- Near Field Communication (NFC)
- Wireless LAN (aka Wi-Fi)
- Bluetooth
This capability is similar to Device Firmware Configuration Interface profiles that admins use to remotely manage firmware on Surface Pro 8 and other Surface devices.
OEMConfig policies are a distinct type of device configuration policy similar to app configuration policy. OEMConfig is a standard defined by Google that uses app configuration in Android to send device settings to apps written by OEMs (original equipment manufacturers). This standard allows OEMs and enterprise mobility management (EMM) solutions to build and support OEM-specific features in a standardized way. To learn more, see OEMConfig supports enterprise device features at Google’s Android Enterprise blog.

First, add the Microsoft Surface OEMConfig application to your environment using the Managed Google Play iframe in your EMM.
First, assign the Surface OEMConfig app to the groups or users you want to target. Then create an Android Configuration profile to apply your settings to target devices.
注意
This guide shows how to use OEMConfig with Microsoft Intune, which functions as an MDM and EMM solution. However, the feature can be used with any EMM that supports Full Device Management or Dedicated Device Management.
