After the client software has been installed, the computer has been restarted, and the user has logged in, the client
software begins the activation process. The activation process runs once for each user account on the computer and
begins when each user logs in to his unique user account. The process associates network user accounts found on the
Mac computer with the accounts in the
Dell
Enterprise Server, and retrieves security policies, sends inventory and status
updates, enables recovery workflows, and provides comprehensive compliance reporting.
After user login, the client software prompts for domain credentials.
