    StuartK73  My previous organization (a couple of years ago) used Jamf to manage devices, and from what I remember it was the same. Quick Start is made available prior to the device receiving the enrollment profile, negating any parameter that was set from the MDM authority. I'm fairly certain we'll need to lean on Apple for this one.

      Fair enough

       

      Still doesn't stop the client complaining that even though Restore is set to Hide in the DEP Enrollment profile the device still looks to connect to another device.

       

      Any ideas?

        You can prevent a Supervised device from being the source device for Quick Start / Proximity setup, but I’ve not found a way to stop the new device displaying the option.

        https://developer.apple.com/documentation/devicemanagement/restrictions

        allowProximitySetupToNewDevice
        boolean

        If false, disables the prompt to set up new devices that are nearby. Requires a supervised device. Available in iOS 11 and later.

        Default: true
