iMessages on new devices

Hey fellas! Just upgraded my iPhone, and my iMessages are acting a bit weird. The new device is enrolled in Hexnode, and the messages aren’t transferring like they used to. Anyone else run into this or know a fix?

VPN trouble while using OpenVPN Connect

I’ve been having trouble configuring VPN on iOS devices at work using the OpenVPN Connect app. I have already pushed the app on the device and configured the VPN. But upon doing it, the devices are unable to connect to the VPN through the app, as there is no toggle available to activate the VPN. Does anyone know a fix for this?

Policies

Select Devices within Group

I have a lot of iPads, and need to group them according to the location they are deployed. Management within the group selection is limited, and cannot select individual devices within the group.
