You can configure a wireless network for your Windows devices using this policy. The device must be enrolled in JumpCloud MDM. This policy works on devices running Windows 10/11.
Note:
This policy only supports WiFi networks configured with pre-shared key (PSK) authentication.
For WiFi networks configured with WPA2 Enterprise (for use with JumpCloud RADIUS, for example), see Configure your WiFi Clients to use RADIUS and Configure EAP-TTLS/PAP on Windows for RADIUS.
To create a Windows WiFi Configuration policy:
- Log in to the JumpCloud Admin Portal.
- Go to DEVICE MANAGEMENT > Policy Management.
- In the All tab, click (+).
- On the New Policy panel, select the Windows tab.
- Select WiFi Configuration policy from the list, then click configure.
- In the SSID field, enter the name of the wireless network for SSID.
- In the Encryption Type field, select the type of encryption used by this network:
- “OPEN”: “open”
- “WPA2-AES”: “WPA2 Personal AES”
- In the Password field, enter the WiFi network password.
- Select Auto-Join to determine whether the device will automatically join the network.
- Select Hidden Network to determine whether the network is shown in the list of available networks.
- Click Save. If prompted, click Save again. No further action is needed for this policy to take effect.
