00:06.070 --> 00:10.990
In this section, we're going to explore Apple configurator, Apple configurator two is the latest version

00:10.990 --> 00:16.750
as of the time that this was recorded and provides a lot of options for manually managing and setting

00:16.750 --> 00:17.590
up iPads.

00:17.740 --> 00:20.280
They're particularly great for Cartes.

00:20.830 --> 00:26.620
We have a lot of devices that are being wheeled around from classroom to classroom or shared devices

00:26.620 --> 00:35.020
that might be in, say, a hospitality industry like, you know, restaurant menus or hotel kiosks where

00:35.050 --> 00:39.310
someplace where you want all your devices to be the same or you're managing groups of devices that are

00:39.310 --> 00:40.400
used for the same purpose.

00:41.050 --> 00:46.240
So to get started, we're going to go out to the App Store to download Apple Configurator and we'll

00:46.240 --> 00:47.070
just search for that.

00:47.080 --> 00:51.400
Here's Apple configurator two and we'll just click on that.

00:51.970 --> 00:55.590
So you have to have a Mac to use Apple configurator.

00:55.600 --> 00:57.430
I'm going to go ahead and install it here.

01:10.340 --> 01:13.460
All right, it's done in Starling's, we'll go ahead, just open it up.

01:15.060 --> 01:18.340
When you first launch Apple Configurator, it wants to know if you want to take a quick tour.

01:18.360 --> 01:20.970
We're going to skip that and we're just going to say get started.

01:24.850 --> 01:30.430
Now that we have Apple configurator to install, we're going to install one additional optional installation,

01:30.670 --> 01:37.150
which is this automation tools under the Apple configurator to menu.

01:37.930 --> 01:43.750
And this is going to put in CFG util, which is a command line configuration utility that is included

01:43.750 --> 01:44.590
with configurator.

01:44.600 --> 01:47.120
So I'm going to go ahead and install their will.

01:47.170 --> 01:47.890
Authenticate.

01:53.880 --> 01:54.960
And now it's installed.

01:57.130 --> 01:59.410
So you can see on SOL automation tools are there.

02:02.100 --> 02:05.250
Go ahead and visit the terminal by minimizing.

02:07.110 --> 02:08.250
Apple configurator.

02:09.640 --> 02:16.990
Open up the terminal and then I'm listening to the man page for CFT Util.

02:21.630 --> 02:28.880
So this will give you step by step information on iOS device management and what you can use of util

02:28.890 --> 02:30.720
to do along with all the commands here.

02:31.290 --> 02:35.110
So I won't read these through, but you can go through and look at them on your own.

02:36.090 --> 02:43.350
We may or may not use some of these command line utilities at a later date in upcoming tutorials, but

02:43.360 --> 02:48.660
I do want to make sure that this is available because this may be something that would be useful for

02:48.660 --> 02:56.070
you, depending on what your overall goal is for deploying these iPads and iOS devices.
