A user signed in to their iPhone with their personal Apple Account in Settings. Then they enrolled the same iPhone using their Managed Apple Account. iCloud is enabled in the organization and the user turned on iCloud drive. Which of these could be a result? Choose the best answer. A. An additional iCloud Drive appears in Files. B. Personal iCloud Drive data is merged with organization data. C. The personal iCloud Drive is unavailable until the device is unenrolled. D. The user is prompted to keep personal iCloud Drive data or remove it from iPhone.
A. An additional iCloud Drive appears in Files. Explanation: When a user has both a personal Apple ID and a Managed Apple ID on the same device (using User Enrollment), each account has its own separate iCloud container. In the Files app, the user sees two iCloud Drives: one for personal data (linked to the personal Apple ID) and another for managed data (linked to the organization’s Managed Apple ID). These remain separate and do not merge.

Your organization has new devices in Apple Business Manager. During deployment, the new Mac computers enroll in MDM, but the new iPhone devices don't enroll. What might be the cause? A. Someone in your organization must manually reset the iPhone devices before they can enroll in MDM. B. The iPhone devices are waiting for approval in Apple Business Manager before they can enroll in MDM. C. The iPhone devices don't have an MDM server assignment. D. The iPhone devices are connected using only 5G.
C. The iPhone devices don't have an MDM server assignment. Explanation: For new Apple devices to enroll automatically in MDM via Apple Business Manager (ABM), each device must be assigned to an MDM server within ABM. If the new iPhones aren’t enrolling, it’s likely because they were never assigned to the MDM server in ABM (unlike the new Macs).
64
Which type of 802.1X configuration allows Mac computers to connect to Wi-Fi before login and user authentication after login? A. System+User Mode B. System+Login Window Mode C. User Mode D. System Mode
A. System+User Mode Explanation: In a System+User mode 802.1X configuration, the Mac uses system-level credentials to connect to Wi-Fi before any user logs in (e.g., at the login window), and then shifts to using the user’s credentials after login. This setup ensures network connectivity at all stages, allowing for management tasks and user-based authentication on the same network.
65
What is the status of Location Services after enrollment if you configured Setup Assistant to skip Location Services? A. It is shown during Setup Assistant and turned off, but a local administrator can turn it on. B. It is hidden during Setup Assistant and turned off, but a local administrator can turn it on. C. It is shown during Setup Assistant and turned off, but a user can turn it on. D. It is hidden during Setup Assistant and turned off, but a user can turn it on.
B. It is hidden during Setup Assistant and turned off, but a local administrator can turn it on. Explanation: When you configure Setup Assistant to skip the Location Services pane, the user is never prompted to enable it. As a result, Location Services remains off by default after enrollment. The admin user can still manually enable Location Services later in Settings.
66
Which Wi-Fi standard helps devices join Wi-Fi networks and roam more quickly and effectively between access points? A. 802.11q B. 802.11r C. FastLane D. 802.11 ad

This results in a more seamless Wi‑Fi experience and is especially helpful in enterprise or campus environments with multiple access points.
67
What can Platform Single Sign-on (Platform SSO) for macOS give users the ability to do? A. Synchronize local account credentials with an identity provider (IdP). B. Turn on Kerberos SSO. C. Get a Federated Managed Apple Account. D. Leverage IdP passkey support in iCloud Keychain.
A. Synchronize local account credentials with an identity provider (IdP). Explanation: Platform Single Sign-On (Platform SSO) enables macOS devices to integrate with an IdP so that users can authenticate once with their corporate credentials. One major benefit is that the local user account password can be synchronized with the IdP password. This ensures the user has a consistent login experience across the Mac and the organization’s identity system.

A user receives their organization-owned iPhone and completes the setup. What's the Location Services status if you configured Setup Assistant to skip the Location Services pane? A. It's off, but the user can turn it on in Settings. B. The user is prompted to configure it. C. It's off, and the user can't turn it on. D. It's on by default.
A. It's off, but the user can turn it on in Settings. Explanation: When the Location Services pane is skipped in the Setup Assistant, iOS doesn’t prompt the user to turn on location services, so it remains off by default. However, the user is still able to manually enable or disable Location Services later in Settings.
69
What happens if your Automated Device Enrollment profile is configured to skip the creation of a local macOS account? A. The user logs in using a network account or another account created outside of Setup Assistant. B. The user is notified their Mac is partially set up, and they must erase and start again. C. The user's Managed Apple Account is used as a local account. D. The setup process fails.
A. The user logs in using a network account or another account created outside of Setup Assistant. Explanation: If your Automated Device Enrollment (ADE) profile is configured to skip local account creation on macOS, the device won’t create a local user during Setup Assistant. Instead, you must provide an alternate means of authentication, such as logging in with a directory-based network account or another type of local account that was set up outside the Setup Assistant process.

How can you identify if a Rapid Security Response was applied to iOS? A. A single-letter identifier is appended to the operating system version. B. A single-digit identifier is appended to the operating system version. C. The letters " rst" are appended to the operating system version. D. The letters " cve" are appended to the operating system version.
A. A single-letter identifier is appended to the operating system version. Explanation: When Apple releases a Rapid Security Response, it appends a single-letter identifier—such as “(a)”—to the existing iOS version number (for example, iOS 16.4.1 (a)). This indicates that the update is a Rapid Security Response rather than a standard incremental software update.
71
Which MDM feature skips all Setup Assistant panes automatically on a Mac that's plugged into Ethernet? A. Auto Advance B. Quick Setup C. Fast Track D. Express Setup
A. Auto Advance Explanation: Auto Advance is an Apple feature that automatically skips all Setup Assistant panes on a newly set up or erased Mac when it’s connected to an Ethernet network. This allows you to quickly prepare or deploy a Mac without manually clicking through the Setup Assistant.
72
Which Terminal command can you use to test network responsiveness inside and outside your network? A. networkQuality B. networkUsage C. networksetup D. netstat
A. networkQuality Explanation: The networkQuality command (introduced in macOS Monterey) measures both upload and download responsiveness by performing continuous network tests. It provides real-time insight into your network’s performance inside and outside your local network.
73
What file downloaded from MDM must be uploaded to Apple Business Manager to generate a server token? A. Public key B. Content token C. Private key D. MDM Intermediate Certificate
A. Public key Explanation: To link your MDM server with Apple Business Manager (for Device Enrollment), your MDM generates a public key file. You then upload this public key to Apple Business Manager, which uses it to create the server token (sometimes referred to as the “DEP token”). You later download and install that server token in your MDM solution to complete the enrollment connection.
74
A Mac user deferred a managed software update after the deadline for the update passed. What happens next? A. The user receives a reminder that they can still defer the update for up to 30 days. B. The user receives notifications that the update is overdue and needs immediate attention. C. All update notifications are disabled to reduce user distraction. D. The update automatically installs without the user's intervention if the deadline is missed.
D. The update automatically installs without the user's intervention if the deadline is missed. Explanation: When a user defers a managed software update after the MDM-enforced deadline has passed, macOS will install the update automatically. This ensures devices remain up to date with critical patches and security improvements, even if the user does not initiate the installation.
75
You try to start in macOS Recovery. You're asked to choose a user and enter a password. Why are you asked to choose a user and enter a password? A. Lockdown Mode is turned on. B. FileVault is turned on. C. Startup Security Utility is set to Full Security. D. Recovery Lock is enabled.
B. FileVault is turned on Explanation: When FileVault is enabled, the startup disk is encrypted. In order to access macOS Recovery on an encrypted disk, you must first authenticate with a FileVault-enabled user account. This ensures that only authorized users can decrypt and access the contents of the startup disk.
76
You're resetting several iPad devices for new users. The iPad devices don't progress past the Apple logo after restart. Which of these should you do? A. Use Apple Configurator for iPhone to restore the iPad devices. B. Send the Return to Service command from the MDM solution. C. Get a bypass code from the MDM administrator to clear Activation Lock. D. Use Apple Configurator for Mac to restore the iPad devices.
D. Use Apple Configurator for Mac to restore the iPad devices. Explanation: If an iPad is stuck on the Apple logo during the restart or setup process, you can connect it to a Mac running Apple Configurator and perform a full restore. This is especially useful in a Return to Service scenario or whenever devices fail to complete a normal boot process.
77
A user has an iPhone that was enrolled using account-driven User Enrollment. They use their Managed Apple Account to back up their iPhone to iCloud. Which data is backed up? A. Only data from Managed Apps B. Only data from personal apps C. All app data D. All data
A. Only data from Managed Apps Explanation: Under User Enrollment—whether initiated via profile-based enrollment or account-driven enrollment—the device effectively has two separate “containers”: one for personal data (linked to a personal Apple ID) and one for managed data (linked to the Managed Apple ID). If a user signs in with their Managed Apple ID and performs an iCloud backup, only the data in the managed container (i.e., Managed Apps and related data) is backed up. Personal data remains associated with the personal Apple ID and is neither visible to the organization nor backed up to the organization’s iCloud storage.
78
Which feature or technology locks a supervised iPad until the feature is turned off? A. Return to Service B. Managed Device Attestation C. Activation Lock D. Managed Lost Mode
D. Managed Lost Mode Explanation: Managed Lost Mode, available on supervised devices, locks the iPad until an administrator disables the feature through the MDM solution. Unlike Activation Lock (which requires the Apple ID and password that enabled it), Managed Lost Mode can only be exited through the MDM platform.
79
What can you optionally include when you prepare a device for a Return to Service? A. Device wallpaper B. Home Screen layout C. Wi-Fi profile D. Installed apps list
C. Wi-Fi profile Explanation: When preparing a device for Return to Service (often to make it ready for a new user), you can optionally include a Wi-Fi profile. This allows the device to automatically connect to a specified network after being erased or reset, which facilitates reconfiguration or enrollment processes without requiring manual network setup.

Which feature can you use with Shared iPad? A. AirDrop B. Universal Control C. Continuity Camera D. Sidecar
A. AirDrop Explanation: Shared iPad supports certain features that don’t require a single user’s personal Apple ID to function. AirDrop, for example, continues to work on Shared iPad, allowing users to share files between devices. Continuity features like Universal Control, Continuity Camera, and Sidecar require a single user’s personal Apple ID session, which isn’t the typical setup in a Shared iPad environment.
81
Which Apple technology can an identity provider (IdP) use to implement modern authentication protocols for iPhone, iPad, and Mac? A. Single sign-on (SSO) extensions B. Network Relay C. IPSec D. WireGuar
A. Single sign-on (SSO) extensions Explanation: Apple’s single sign-on (SSO) extensions allow identity providers (IdPs) to integrate modern authentication protocols (like OAuth 2.0 or OpenID Connect) directly into iOS, iPadOS, and macOS. This streamlines the login process for users, reducing the need to re-enter credentials and enhancing overall security.
82
What can a bootstrap token authorize? A. Setting a recovery-lock passcode B. Setting a File Vault personal recovery-key C. App installations, when managed with MDM D. Software updates, when managed with MDM
