Create a Device Level Windows Bluetooth Policy

You can configure Bluetooth restrictions for your Windows devices using this policy. The device must be enrolled in JumpCloud MDM. This policy works on devices running Windows 10/11.

Creating the Policy

To create a Bluetooth Configuration policy for Windows devices, do the following:

Selecting the Policy Template

1. Log in to the JumpCloud Admin portal.

2. Go to Device Management > Policy Management. The Policy Management page is displayed.
3. On the Policy Management page, click +Add New.
4. Select Device Policy to assign the policy to devices and device groups. On the New Device Policy page:
   • Select the Windows tab.
   • Search and select the policy name and click Configure. The Details tab of the policy is displayed.
   • On the Details tab, configure the required policy configuration settings.
   • (Optional) In the Policy Name field, enter a new name for the policy or keep the default. Policy names must be unique.
   • (Optional) In the Policy Notes field, enter details such as creation date of the policy, and information on testing and deployment of the policy.

Configuring the Policy

• In the Settings field, select the settings you want enabled for this policy.

• To add Custom Services:
  • Enter the service name. To get a complete list of service UUIDs, see the Bluetooth standards documentation.
  • Enter the valid service UUID. Jump to Creating Valid Service Universally Unique Identifiers (UUID) to learn more.

Applying the Policy

• (Optional) Select the Policy Groups tab. Select one or more policy groups where you want to add this policy. 
• Select the Device Groups tab. Select one or more device groups where you want to apply this policy to. For device groups with multiple OS member types, the policy only applies when a user logs into a supported Windows device that is enrolled in MDM.
• Or, select the Devices tab. Select one or more devices where you want to apply this policy.
• Click Create Policy. A success message is displayed indicating the completion of policy creation.

Viewing Policy Status

1. Select the Status tab.
2. To see the last Result Log for a device where this policy is applied, click view.

Creating Valid Service Universally Unique Identifiers (UUID)

To create a valid service UUID:

1. Find the service id from the Bluetooth standards documentation.
2. The UUIDs all use the same base UUID with the profile identifiers added to the beginning of the base UUID.

For example, let's create a UUID for Hands Free Profile.

• Hands Free Profile service id - 0x111E
• Base UUID - 0x00000000-0000-1000-8000-00805F9B34FB
• Hands Free Profile UUID = 0x111E added to the beginning of base UUID = 0000111E-0000-1000-8000-00805F9B34FB
• Always ensure the UUID is enclosed in curly braces {} and ends with a semicolon ;
• The valid Hands Free Profile UUID to be entered is - {0000111E-0000-1000-8000-00805F9B34FB};
