Android support for Microsoft Exchange in pure Google devices Note: The information presented here is intended for Microsoft Exchange administrators who are planning and implementing support for any of these pure Google devices running Android. Android support by version and device The following AndroidTM versions support Microsoft Exchange information services and security policies: ● Android 4.0.4 (Ice Cream Sandwich) ● Android 4.
PAGE 2
Supported information services Users can add Microsoft Exchange accounts to their pure Google devices by using the Account & Sync settings available from the Settings or Email app. Android supports the following Exchange information services: ● ● ● ● ● ● ● Adding Exchange user accounts (via an ActiveSync server), and enforcement of some mailbox policies (as described in “Supported security policies,” next).
PAGE 3
Important: The other ActiveSync mailbox policies have no effect if this policy is not set. Require alphanumeric password If you set this ActiveSync mailbox policy, users must secure their devices using a password that includes both letters and numbers (only the Password option is available in Settings > Security > Screen lock). If you don’t set this mailbox policy, users may secure their devices with a password or a numeric PIN (both the Password and PIN settings are available).
PAGE 4
Settings > Display > Sleep setting to a duration less than or equal to the value of the policy you set. Allow nonprovisionable devices This ActiveSync mailbox policy controls whether pure Google devices that support some but not all of your mailbox policies can synchronize information with your Exchange server. If all your mailbox policies are supported (as described in this section), this policy has no effect.
PAGE 5
If you establish a mailbox policy on your Exchange server, you can perform a remote wipe of any pure Google device that has added an account from your server. A remote wipe performs the same action as a factory data reset (Settings > Backup & reset > Factory data reset): it erases all the user’s personal data from internal storage, including information about the user’s Exchange accounts, Google Accounts, and any other accounts. It also erases all app settings and any downloaded applications.
