IBM has released several new features in the Mobile Device Management 
Fixlet Site for IBM Tivoli Endpoint Manager.

1. Nitrodesk Touchdown support 
The TEM Agent now integrates with Nitrodesk Touchdown. This allows TEM to 
control a richer set of configurations on Android devices, such as 
selective wipe, and security polices like password length, encryption etc. 


2. Google Cloud Messaging 
The Android agent can now use Google Cloud Messaging to provide much 
quicker response times to action commands. 

3. Proxy Agent enhancements 
The Proxy Agent now supports almost all 'Take Action Dialog' constraints, 
action locking as well as custom site subscription.

4. Data Usage Reporting 
The iOS app can now report a device’s data usage information for the past 
3 months.

5. Expanded Configuration Options for Authenticated Enrollment 
Authenticated Enrollment and the Self Service Portal can now be configured 
to filter access according to group membership, and now supports 
additional advanced LDAP configurations (such as anonymous binding).

6. Numerous other fixes and improvements.


To take advantage of these new features, please take the following 
actions:

- Update any deployed Trusted Services Provider with Fixlet ID 200: 
Upgrade Trusted Services Provider.
- Update any Exchange or iOS Management Extenders using their associated 
upgrade Fixlets (ID 94 or 93).
- Run Fixlet 191: Upgrade Proxy Agents on any Management Extenders not 
previously updated.
- Let users know to upgrade their Android or iOS apps in the Google Play 
Store or Apple App Store respectively.
