Description
Google Admin suite lets the network administrator upload a configuration file for SonicWall Mobile Connect to be imported so that all computers/chromebooks which are provisioned from G Suite will have both the Mobile Connect Application pushed to the desktop along with a configuration for all users. Once the configuration has been applied end-users need only enter their name and password to connect.
Resolution
Mobile Connect for ChromeOS supports managed VPN connections from the Google Admin Console. See below for a sample configuration file.
- schema.json - specifies the format for the admin managed setting for Mobile Connect. This supports an array of VPN connections.

"properties": {
"Connections": {

"id": "ListOfConnections",

"properties": {

"type": "string"
},
"domain": {
"title": "Domain",
"description": "Domain this connection (optional)",
"type": "string"
}
}
}
}
}
}
Sample exampleManagedConfiguration.json:

{

"server": "sma100.example.com",
