The article links to https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/roles/admin-units-manage#add-an-administrative-unit
Which clearly shows that this is to be done in Azure AD and Teams only picks up the administrative units done in Azure AD.

But as per Joe's original post, i can tell you that i can't create device-based admin units in AAD. Options are only users or groups.

My take on the Teams article you referenced is that Teams admin portal maybe/can leverage admin unit groups that have devices in them. Dunno. A question i might run by MS maybe.
