Apple Certified Support Professional DEP-2025 Book

Managed Distribution, available through Apple Business Manager (ABM) or Apple School Manager (ASM), is required to deploy books to devices using an MDM solution. Administrators purchase books in ABM/ASM, assign them to users or devices via Managed Distribution, and the MDM pushes them silently (for supervised devices) or with user consent. An Apple Developer account (option A) is for apps, not books. User acceptance (option C) may be needed for non-supervised devices but isn’t the core requirement. A VPN configuration (option D) is unrelated. TheApple Business Manager User Guideconfirms Managed Distribution for book deployment.

Licenses can be transferred within an organization. TheApple Business Manager User Guidestates, "Licenses for purchased apps can be transferred to another location within the same organization in Apple Business Manager." Options B, C, and D are incorrect as free content doesn’t require negotiation, assignment isn’t automatic, and multiple roles can purchase.

Apple Configurator, a macOS application, supports configuring and supervising iPads, iPhones, and other iOS/iPadOS devices, as well as Apple TVs (tvOS). It runs on a Mac, which acts as the host, but the question refers to devices it can manage, not the host platform. Options A and B are correct, and while C (Mac) isn’t typically configured by Apple Configurator, the tool’s broad compatibility with Apple devices makes D the best answer. TheApple Platform Deployment Guideconfirms its use across these device types.

Auto Advance skips Setup Assistant. ThemacOS Deployment Referencestates, "Auto Advance automatically skips all Setup Assistant panes on a Mac connected to Ethernet, streamlining deployment." Options B, C, and D are not standard MDM features.
