    Hi,

     

    A good practice would be to create a dedicated user and assign an Intune license to this user. Then assign the Device Enrollment Role to it. This allows you to enroll up to 1000 devices.

    If you have Azure AD Joined devices, they are already enrolled in Intune (Endpoint Manager). You maybe need to configure the proper settings first (Autoenrollment, DNS). But it requires Azure AD P1.

    Also have a look at the device enrollment restriction policies. They do not apply to Device Enrollment Managers for Windows:

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/mem/intune/enrollment/enrollment-restrictions-set#create-a-device-limit-restriction

     

    Each user who is using Intune (Apps, Profiles, Policies, etc) needs a license.

    If you have shared devices, Kiosk or Signage for example, you can use "Intune Device-only" licenses. This licenses do not need to be assigned to any device or user.

    Hope this helps,

    Cheers,

    Al
