# How Mobile Device Management Providers support eSIM Management on Windows # How Mobile Device Management Providers support eSIM Management on Windows
The eSIM Profile Management Solution places the Mobile Device Management (MDM) Provider in the front and center. The whole idea is to use an already-existing solution that customers are familiar with and use to manage devices. The expectations from an MDM are that it will use the same sync mechanism that it uses for device policies to push any policy to the eSIM profile, and be able to use Groups and Users the same way. This way, the eSIM profile download and the installation happen in the background without impacting the end user. Similarly, the IT admin would use the same method of managing the eSIM profiles (Assignment/de-assignment, etc.) the same way as they currently do device management.

If you're a Mobile Device Management (MDM) Provider and want to support eSIM Management on Windows, perform the following steps:
- Onboard to Azure Active Directory - Onboard to Azure Active Directory
- Contact mobile operators directly or contact orchestrator providers. Windows provides the capability for eSIM profiles to be managed by MDM providers in the case of enterprise use cases. However, Windows does not limit how ecosystem partners might want to offer this to their own partners and/or customers. As such, the eSIM profile management capability is something that can be supported by integrating with the Windows OMA-DM. This makes it possible to remotely manage the eSIM profiles according to the company policies. Contact mobile operators directly or contact orchestrator providers.

As an MDM provider, if you are looking to integrate/onboard to a mobile operator on a 1:1 basis, contact them and learn more about their onboarding. If you would like to integrate and work with only one MDM provider, contact that provider directly. If you would like to offer eSIM management to customers using different MDM providers, contact an orchestrator provider. Orchestrator providers act as proxy handling MDM onboarding and as a mobile operator onboarding. Their role is to make the process as painless and scalable as possible for all parties.

# Domain controller: LDAP server channel binding token requirements
**Applies to**:
- Windows Server
This article describes the best practices, location, values, and security considerations for the **Domain controller: LDAP server channel binding token requirements** security policy setting.
## Reference
This policy setting determines whether the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) server requires LDAP clients to negotiate channel bindings (EPA).
Unsigned/Unprotected network traffic is susceptible to man-in-the-middle attacks, where an intruder captures packets between the server and the client device and modifies them before forwarding them to the client device. In the example of an LDAP server, a malicious user can cause a client device to make decisions based on false records from the LDAP directory. You can lower this risk in a corporate network by implementing strong physical security measures to protect the network infrastructure. Furthermore, implementing Internet Protocol security (IPsec) Authentication Header mode, which provides mutual authentication and packet integrity for IP traffic, can make all types of man-in-the-middle attacks difficult.
- If channel binding is set to Always, LDAP clients who don't support channel bindings will be rejected.
- If channel binding is set to when supported, only incorrect channel bindings will be blocked, and clients who don't support channel binding can continue to connect via LDAP over TLS.
CBT or EPA is used with TLS sessions when a SASL authentication method is used to authenticate the user. SASL means you use NTLM or Kerberos for user authentication. LDAP Simple Bind over TLS doesn't offer channel binding token protection and is therefore not recommended.
### Possible values
- **Never**: No channel binding validation is performed. This is the behavior of all servers that haven't been updated.
- **When Supported**: Clients that advertise support for Channel Binding Tokens must provide the correct token when authenticating over TLS/SSL connections; clients that don't advertise such support and/or don't use TLS/SSL connections aren't impacted. This is an intermediate option that allows for application compatibility.
- **Always**: All clients must provide channel binding information over LDAPS. The server rejects LDAPS authentication requests from clients that don't do so.
### Best practices
We recommend that you set**Domain controller: LDAP server channel binding token requirements**to**Always**. Clients that don't support LDAP channel binding will be unable to execute LDAP queries against the domain controllers.
### Location
Computer Configuration\\Windows Settings\\Security Settings\\Local Policies\\Security Options
### Default values
The following table lists the actual and effective default values for this policy. Default values are also listed on the policy's property page.
| Server type or GPO | Default value |
|--------------------------------------------|---------------|
| Default Domain Policy | Not defined |
| Default Domain Controller Policy | Not defined |
| Stand-Alone Server Default Settings | Not defined |
| DC Effective Default Settings | None |
| Member Server Effective Default Settings | None |
| Client Computer Effective Default Settings | None |
## Policy management
This section describes features and tools that are available to help you manage this policy.
### Restart requirement
None. Changes to this policy become effective without a device restart when they're saved locally or distributed through Group Policy.
## Security considerations
This section describes how an attacker might exploit a feature or its configuration, how to implement the countermeasure, and the possible negative consequences of countermeasure implementation.
### Vulnerability
Unsigned/Unprotected network traffic is susceptible to man-in-the-middle attacks. In such attacks, an intruder captures packets between the server and the client device, modifies them, and then forwards them to the client device. Regarding LDAP servers, an attacker could cause a client device to make decisions that are based on false records from the LDAP directory. To lower the risk of such an intrusion in an organization's network, you can implement strong physical security measures to protect the network infrastructure. You could also implement Internet Protocol security (IPsec) Authentication Header mode, which performs mutual authentication and packet integrity for IP traffic to make all types of man-in-the-middle attacks difficult.
### Countermeasure
Configure the **Domain controller: LDAP server channel binding token requirements** setting to **Always**.
### Potential impact
Client devices that don't support LDAP channel binding can't run LDAP queries against the domain controllers.
