Hi Moombas​ and AFahmy​ 

 

After checking with the team, it appears we already have a similar Feature Request (a DPC extra to disable MAC randomisation during enrolment). If you want to be added to this existing request, please send me a DM with your name and the name of the company you work for.

 

The team also added some background: 

This method setMacRandomizationSetting of the WifiConfiguration class was added in Android 13, so actually exists a way to control it but currently there are no AMAPI or Play EMM API policies or DPC extras in ZT for this end.

At the moment OEMConfigs like Samsung KSP cover this need and probably some other EMMs and OEMs provide similar solutions, but this happens once device is enrolled.

 

I hope this is helpful 🙂
