Tags Management Page for Systems Manager

Manual Tag

Simple admin generated tags are applied statically to devices. They must be manually added/removed, and are always active.

To create a new manual tag:

1. Navigate to Systems manager > Tags > + Add new. 
2. Select Manual Tag.
3. Enter a tag name without spaces.
4. Select devices to scope the tag.

Security Policy Tag

Security policies in Systems Manager (SM) networks can be used to monitor a number of security-related items on enrolled clients. When creating a security policy tag, there is the option to scope a policy for a specific platform, or apply one to all devices. 

To create a new security policy tag:

1. Navigate to Systems manager > Tags > + Add new. 
2. Select Security Policy Tag.
3. Choose the corresponding platform settings.
   • Selecting a platform will only display policies related that device type. See below screenshots for examples.
   • Selecting Advanced will display all available security policy checks, and will generate security compliance tags for all devices. We recommend using platform-specific tags when possible, as compliance may be inconsistent if desktop policies are scoped for mobile devices, and vice versa.

The Advanced option, below, shows all available security policies, and will apply to all enrolled devices.

Below is an example of a platform-specific security policy tag. In this case, only iOS compatible settings are available, and the policy scopes only to iOS devices.

Schedule Tag

Tags can also be scheduled to give control of when profiles are applied or when applications need to be pushed down. To create a schedule tag:

1. Navigate to Systems manager > Tags > + Add new. 
2. Select Schedule Tag.
3. Create New Schedule.
4. Input Schedule name.
5. Select a specific day to create/edit timeframes. Drag the slider to expand or decrease the time.

Editing Tags

Manual, security policy and schedule tags can all be edited in the tags management page. Choose the tag from the list of tags and select Edit. Renaming tags will instantly modify the tag's name on all assigned devices.

Managing Tag Scope

For Manual and Device Type tags, scoping can be done on the tag management page. 

1. Navigate to Systems manager > Tags.
2. Select Manual/Device tag.
3. Navigate to Devices > Edit.
4. Scope tag to desired devices and hit Update.

Deleting Tags

Deleting a tag will un-scope the tag from all the devices it is currently scoped to.

2. Select the tag and navigate to  Delete > Delete this tag.
3. Once the tag has been marked for deletion, save changes.
