  • Thread-topic: iOS 7 web restrictions
Does anyone know if the web restriction (content filter) feature is meant to be a option to having a http web proxy for content filtering? If nothing else we are able to prevent private browsing and keep web history.  You can try it out on a non supervised device by going to settings > general > restrictions > websites  and choose "limit adult content." Same functionality that our MDM's will have when they update with the new API.

Thanks Corey,

But I think you are misunderstanding the problem. I am not concerned with
users individually updating to iOS 7 (although that IS a separate concern
too). I am talking about setting up new devices through Configurator.
Somehow this got past engineers at Apple. You should not FORCE people to
upgrade new devices when setting up in Configurator, specially in an
education/enterprise environment where version control is critical.


And BTW, we do certainly hope that Configurator 2.0 will allow us to lock
down supervised devices completely as it should! Supervision right now is
a joke as users can basically pretty much do whatever they want, including
removal of profiles, etc. Configurator is in need of some SERIOUS love
from Apple. We have been told it's coming, so we are hoping for an early
XMAS present soon. ;-)

Hello Shahin,

You can block mesu.apple.com<http://mesu.apple.com> and that will keep the iOS update from being
visible to the devices. Keep in mind that devices will still see the
updates once they leave your network.

Thanks,
Corey

Hi Shahin,
 You can prevent the removal of profiles (which of course doesn't prevent completely erasing and reloading the iOS device to get around it). If you go into a profile, in the General section, scroll down to "Security." If you choose "Never" or "With Authorization," it will prevent profile removal. In our district, we normally recommend "With Authorization" so we can remove a profile with a password if it's causing a problem syncing with Configurator. Hope I understood the discussion on that correctly in your second paragraph.
-Erik
