Exchange device policy

You can use the Exchange ActiveSync device policy to configure an email client on user devices to let them access their corporate email hosted on Exchange. You can create policies for iOS, macOS, Android Enterprise, Samsung SAFE, Samsung KNOX, and Windows Tablet. Each platform requires a different set of values, which are described in detail in the following sections.

To create this policy, you need the host name or IP address of the Exchange Server. For information about ActiveSync settings, see the Microsoft articleActiveSync CSP.

To add or configure this policy, go toConfigure > Device Policies. For more information, seeDevice policies.
