The correct answer is that devices added to the group will be removed after 15 days from enrollment. This is because the enrollmentTimeDeviceMembershipLimit property in an Intune dynamic device group configuration specifies the maximum number of days a device remains in the group following its enrollment, acting as a time-based expiration rule rather than a cap on total membership. On the Microsoft 365 Endpoint Administrator MD-102 exam, this concept tests your understanding of how dynamic group rules manage device lifecycle, often appearing as a trap where candidates confuse it with a device count limit or scope tag restriction. A common memory tip is to think of it as a "time-to-live" for group membership: once the clock runs out, the device is automatically evicted, just like a temporary badge that expires after a set number of days.
MD-102 Manage and maintain devices Practice Question
This MD-102 practice question tests your understanding of manage and maintain devices. This is a configuration task: choose the command set that satisfies every stated requirement. Small differences — like 'secret' vs 'password' or 'transport input ssh' vs 'all' — change whether the answer is correct. After answering, compare your reasoning against the explanation and wrong-answer breakdown below. Once you have made your selection, read the full explanation to reinforce the concept and understand why each distractor is designed to mislead on exam day.

Correct answer & explanation
✓
Devices added to the group will be removed after 15 days from enrollment
Option B is correct. The enrollmentTimeDeviceMembershipLimit property defines how many days after enrollment a device remains in the dynamic group. Option A is wrong because it does not limit total devices. Option C is wrong because it does not limit scope tags. Option D is wrong because it does not limit assignments.
Key principle: Answer the scenario, not the keyword: identify the specific constraint before choosing the most familiar-sounding option.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
✗
The group will only contain devices that have been enrolled for at least 15 days
Why it's wrong here
This would mean devices must be enrolled for 15 days to be included, not the case.
✗
Only devices enrolled in the last 15 days are eligible
Why it's wrong here
This is the opposite; it removes devices after 15 days.
✗
Limits the number of devices in the group to 15
Why it's wrong here
The property is about time, not count.
✓
Devices added to the group will be removed after 15 days from enrollment
Why this is correct
This property sets a time limit for membership after enrollment.

TExam Day Tips
→Underline the problem statement mentally.
→Watch for words such as best, first, most likely and least administrative effort.
→Review why wrong options are wrong, not only why the correct option is correct.
Key takeaway
Answer the scenario, not the keyword: identify the specific constraint before choosing the most familiar-sounding option.
Real-world example
How this comes up in practice
A cloud solutions architect for a retail company is evaluating services for a new workload. The correct answer here reflects best practice for the specific scenario described — not a general cloud recommendation. Answer the scenario, not the keyword: identify the specific constraint before choosing the most familiar-sounding option. Cloud exam questions reward reading the constraint carefully: the same technology can be right or wrong depending on the use case.
