Intune Enrollment Status Page Configuration

Today we will go through one of the hot topics in Modern Management Intune Enrollment Status Page Configuration 2023

The Intune Enrollment Status Page ESP is a critical component of Microsoft Intune, a cloud-based mobile device management (MDM) and mobile application management (MAM) solution. The ESP plays a vital role in ensuring a smooth and secure onboarding process for devices that are being enrolled in your organization’s Intune environment.

Intune Enrollment Status Page (ESP) shows the progress of windows device provisioning when a new device enrolled through Intune or a new user sign in to the device. You can show ESP during the default out-of-box experience (OOBE) for Azure AD join, Windows Autopilot scenarios or when new user sign into the device for the first time.

This article, we will create a Intune Enrollment Status Page Configuration profile for Windows Autopilot devices.

Intune Windows Autopilot depends on number of varieties of internet-based services. Access to these services you must be provided for Autopilot to function properly. In the simplest way case, enabling proper functionality can be achieved by ensuring the following conditions:-

  • Ensure Domain Name Services (DNS) name resolution for internet DNS names.
  • Allow access to all hosts via port 80 (HTTP), 443 (HTTPS), and 123 (UDP/NTP).

Windows Autopilot Deployment Services

After a network connection is in place, each Windows device will contact the Windows Autopilot Deployment Service. With Windows 10 version 1903 and the following URLs are used:

  • https://ztd.dds.microsoft.com
  • https://cs.dds.microsoft.com
  • https://login.live.com

Additionally, we recommend disabling Windows 10 for first logon animation in order to see the speed of first sign-in up. Because the ESP also bypasses the first logon animation.

Please refer the below OMA URI
