MD-102 Prepare infrastructure for devices Practice Question
You are deploying Windows 10 to 500 new devices using a task sequence in Microsoft Configuration Manager. The devices need to be joined to Microsoft Entra ID and enrolled in Intune automatically during OSD. Which method should you use?
⚠ Common exam trap
Many candidates confuse the 'Provision Microsoft Entra ID' step with a provisioning package (PPKG), but the step is a native task sequence action that correctly handles bulk tokens during OSD, whereas a PPKG is applied outside the task sequence flow.
Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
Add a 'Provision Microsoft Entra ID' step in the task sequence, using a bulk token generated from Microsoft Entra ID.
Using a 'Provision Microsoft Entra ID' step with a bulk token in a Configuration Manager task sequence directly enables automatic Microsoft Entra ID join and Intune enrollment during OSD. The bulk token, generated from Microsoft Entra ID, allows devices to be joined without user interaction, which is essential for unattended, large-scale deployments.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
Add a 'Provision Microsoft Entra ID' step in the task sequence, using a bulk token generated from Microsoft Entra ID.
Why this is correct
This step allows Entra ID join and automatic Intune enrollment during OSD.
- ✗
Use a provisioning package (PPKG) with bulk enrollment token, applied during the task sequence.
Why it's wrong here
PPKG is typically used for out-of-box experience or existing devices, not integrated with ConfigMgr task sequence.
- ✗
Set a Group Policy that enables automatic MDM enrollment using a discovered AAD token.
Why it's wrong here
GPO-based enrollment is not used during OSD; it's for existing joined devices.
- ✗
Configure Windows Autopilot for existing devices and redeploy them.
Why it's wrong here
Autopilot is not used within a ConfigMgr task sequence; it's a separate deployment method.
