Provision URL
Swivel version 3.10 combines the Site ID and Provision codes into one single URL.
From Swivel version 3.9.7, a URL can be used to provide the Swivel authentication server settings and the Mobile Provision Code to a user.
For the Mobile Phone Provision administration guide see: and Mobile Re-Provision How to Guide
Overview
Mobile Phone Client Users can request a Mobile Provision Code using the User Portal, or be sent one from the Administrator. message.
Mobile Provision Overview
The Mobile Provision Code URL is only sent to the users defined transport, such as a mobile phone or email address.
Prerequisites
Swivel 3.10
Supported Mobile device
Swivel Mobile Client installed that supports provisioning, see Mobile Phone Client
Configuring the Provision URL
These settings refer to the Swivel SSD provisiong server and should not be changed unless explicitly directed to by Swivel. The URL used for provisioning a user is defined on each Swivel Administration Console under Policy/Self Reset. These URL's can be used for all deployments of Swivel and do not need to be hosted locally, i.e. use these default URL's.
URL provisioning: default: http://smc.swivelsecure.com/smc/provision/ The provisioning URL allows the provision code to be used for a specific user. A URL request is made by the mobile devices web browser with the Provision number appended to provision the device.
URL to get settings: default: http://smc.swivelsecure.com/smc/getsettings/ The Site ID (SSD) is added to the URL to automatically populate the relevant server settings for the user. The site ID needs to be entered on the Swivel Administration console under Server/Name Site ID.
URL complete: default: http://smc.swivelsecure.com/smc/complete/ The URL to read the Site ID and Provision code combing the two above into one link
Send provision code as security string: Yes/No. If set to Yes, then the users provision code will be sent by their security string transport instead of their Alert transport.
