Correct answer is 4. Configuration Profiles are not cross-platform, and W-Fi settings are contained within their own Profile.

Except that WiFi falls under configuration profile but password falls under compliance policy.

You can find the "Require password to access device" settings under MEM -> Devices -> Configuration Profiles -> Templates "Device restrictions" at "Password" section. Doesn't it cover the requirement in the question?

MiZi, I just checked this in MEM, and you are absolutely correct. You can create a Configuration Profile under the path you mentioned that determines how long a password must be. Which means the correct answer is 4. All of these other comments are from quite some time ago, so maybe this has changed since these people posted here that password must be configured in Compliance policy. If you are here reading these comments for yourself, I urge you to look at configuration policies in your MEM and verify the correct answer yourself.

I think it's 2. Just checked in MEM. You can set password length in a configuration profile as well as in a compliance policy. However, the password settings in the Compliance policy specifies "Require password to unlock mobile devices", where the Configuration profile seems to be amore general password policy. The question is a bit vague, but I think it should be 2. They're asking for the minimum amount of configuration policies and the requirements state "Require passwords of at least six characters to lock the devices", so you could configure this as a Compliance policy.

After reviewing this question again I changed my mind: I think it's 4. I think myself and others have gotten lost in what's technically possible. Even though password policies can be set in configuration policies and compliance policies (discussions on best practices asside), the question clearly states: "You need to create Microsoft Intune device configuration profiles to meet the following requirements" suggesting the password policy should be configured in a configuration policy in the context of this question.

that is incorrect. Settings catalogue allows you to mix and match policies from the templates.

This is incorrect, whilst you can configure PIN/passcode requirements for iOS and Windows devices in settings catalogs (seperate policies for each OS) you cannot deploy WiFi networks via settings catalogs, this is a seperate policy meaning you would still need 4

2 configuration policies is correct answer - B. This is because lock password policy is configured under Compliance policies: MEM -> Devices- > Compliance Policies. The question is "minimal no. of configuration policies". Verified it on my tenant Dev environment.

Not exactly, the wording in what is required specifies only that you are "Configuring" the WiFi, but just "requiring" the password. This one is difficult though and I understand arguments both ways here. Not a well worded question.

I have tested this by going to: endpoint.microsoft.com - Devices - Configuration Profiles. From here I can confirm that you can not make a password profile and a wi-fi profile within the same configuration. Therefore as suggested previously I can conclude that you would need: 1 x ios wifi profile 1 x ios password profile 1 x Windows wifi profile 1 x Windows passowrd profile Add them up and that = 4 Answer is A.

You enforce passwords in a device configuration profile. You check on passwords with a compliance policy. The question is only on device configuration profiles. So answer is 4

2 configuration policies is correct answer - B. This is because lock password policy is configured under Compliance policies: MEM -> Devices- > Compliance Policies. The question is "minimal no. of configuration policies". Verified it on my tenant Dev environment. Two kind off setting land under different policies nodes: - configuration policies: Wi-Fi policy - compliance policies: Lock Password policy

B is correct according to bing. You need to create Microsoft Endpoint Manager device configuration profiles to configure Wi-Fi connectivity to a secured network named ContosoNet and require passwords of at least six characters to lock the devices. The minimum number of device configuration profiles that you should create is 2. One profile for the Windows 10 devices and one profile for the iOS devices.

Answer should be 4. If I test this at this moment I can click on Create Profile. Then I need to choose a platform and then a profile type. After this I need to create another profile for the other platform. So yes, a profile can be setup for Windows or iOS, but not within one profile.

Selected Answer: B
You can create two Microsoft Endpoint Manager device configuration profiles to meet the requirements: Wi-Fi connectivity: You can create a device configuration profile to configure Wi-Fi connectivity to the ContosoNet network. This profile can be applied to both Windows 10 and iOS devices. Password policy: You can create a separate device configuration profile to require passwords of at least six characters to lock the devices. This profile can also be applied to both Windows 10 and iOS devices. By creating two device configuration profiles, one for Wi-Fi connectivity and one for the password policy, you can meet both of the requirements with a minimum number of profiles. Therefore, the minimum number of device configuration profiles that you should create is 2.

Correct answer B, as you have two device types, and the question states "What is the minimum number of device configuration profiles" Key word here is minimum, so 2 profiles at minimum will suffice..

Not sure where this was a while back but believe it's 4. there's a 'template' config policy for Wi-Fi (along with things like certificates, VPN, etc) then there's a 'settings' preview option that allows you set passcode length as an option under the security node (at least for iOS/iPadOS..assuming it's available within Win10 devices). Tested in demo tenant.

Selected Answer: B
Just tested this out and the way I see it, config profiles and compliance policies are two completely separate items. You can create a compliance policy for passwords for each OS, so you don't need to create a config profile for passwords. You do need to create config profiles for wifi though, so you will need one for each OS. So answer is 2. I don't see any reason for treating compliance policies the same as config profiles when they have separate blades, and a profile is not the same as a policy conceptually. The question asks for minimum amount of config profiles needed, so even if you could create config profiles for the passwords, you don't need to when you can create compliance policies instead. It's possible to do it with 4 but you don't need to. You need a minimum of 2. That's how I read it and make sense of it, not sure if Microsoft sees it the same way or not. That's the real question. How will Microsoft see it?
