What count as a Managed Device inside SharePoint admin center "Access control"

Inside SharePoint admin center >> we can define Unmanaged Device access control, as follow:-

 

 

so my first question, what count as a managed device? are those only Azure VMs? or if i have a windows or unix laptop and i login to it using my Office 365 account, then this is also considered as managed device?

second question, when i click on this link, i got this message since the account does not have the needed license :-

 

 

so is there a way to apply those settings directly inside AD without having to worry about the additional license?

  • Managed devices are enrolled devices in your entra id. For example if you intune enroll devices. 

    The license is required to do these actions.
