# Apple MDM Configuration Types

> Look up the configuration types you can add to a legacy Apple configuration profile, and the macros you can use in their values.

Source: https://docs.capaone.com/capaone/mobile-manager/apple-mdm/apple-mdm-configuration-types/  
Product: CapaOne — a separate CapaSystems product; do not apply this page to any other.

Apple configurations in CapaOne come in two kinds, each on its own tab under
**Apple → Configurations**:

- **Legacy** — the original configuration profiles. They're available until all configuration
  types have been moved to DDM.
- **DDM** — Declarative Device Management configurations. See
  [DDM Configuration Types Reference](/capaone/mobile-manager/apple-ddm/ddm-configuration-types-reference/).

This page lists the configuration types you can add to a **Legacy** configuration.

## Create a legacy configuration

1. Go to **Apple → Configurations** and click **New**.
2. Select **Legacy**.

3. Enter a configuration name.
4. In the list on the left, select the configuration types you want to add, and fill in their
   settings. Use **Category or Configuration** to search the list. A check mark shows which types
   the configuration uses, and an error icon shows a type with missing or invalid settings.
5. Save the configuration, then assign it on its **Assignment** tab.

When a device has more than one configuration, priority decides which one applies. See
[Configuration Priority](/capaone/reference/configuration-priority/).

## Configuration types

| Category | Configuration types |
|---|---|
| **Accounts** | LDAP |
| **App Management** | Kiosk Mode |
| **Certificates** | PEM Certificate, PKCS1 Certificate, PKCS12 Certificate, Root Certificate |
| **Mail** | Exchange ActiveSync |
| **Networking** | Cellular, DNS Settings, Domains, Network Usage Rules, Wifi |

| **Security** | Passcode |
| **System Configuration** | Lock Screen Message |

| **VPN** | App Layer VPN, VPN |
| **Web** | Web Content Filter |

**Home Screen Layout** applies to supervised devices only. The configuration's page shows a
**Supervised only** badge.

Web Clips are added as applications, not configurations. See
[Apple Applications](/capaone/mobile-manager/apple-mdm/apple-applications/#add-a-web-clip).

## Macros

You can use macros in configuration values. CapaOne replaces them with values from the device or
its user:

| Macro | Replaced with |
|---|---|
| `$hwi.imei$` | The device's IMEI number |
| `$hwi.serialNumber$` | The device's serial number |
| `$user.fullName$` | The full name of the device's user |
| `$user.userPrincipalName$` | The user principal name of the device's user |
| `$user.email$` | The email address of the device's user |

Point to **Supported Macros** in the configuration editor to see the list.

## The configuration's page

Open a configuration to see its **Summary**, the **Endpoints** it applies to, and its
**Assignment** to endpoints and groups.
