Microsoft 365 Endpoint Administrator Associate MD-102 Practice Question
You plan to deploy 100 Windows 11 laptops to a remote branch office that has no line-of-sight to an on-premises Active Directory domain. The devices are corporate-owned, will be used only by employees, must support Windows Hello for Business, and must enroll in Microsoft Intune automatically during first sign-in. You want to minimize dependence on on-premises infrastructure. Which Microsoft Entra device join method should you recommend?
Hybrid Azure AD join
Azure AD registration
Azure AD join
On-premises domain join with manual Intune enrollment
Azure AD join (now called Microsoft Entra join) is designed for corporate-owned Windows devices that are not required to be domain-joined. During the out-of-box experience the device can join Microsoft Entra ID directly and, if automatic MDM enrollment is configured, it is simultaneously enrolled in Intune. Azure AD-joined devices fully support Windows Hello for Business and do not need persistent connectivity to an on-premises Active Directory.
Azure AD registration suits personally owned (BYOD) devices because only the user identity, not the device, is joined. Hybrid Azure AD join still relies on domain join and therefore requires network access to a domain controller during provisioning. A traditional on-premises domain join combined with Intune enrollment likewise mandates domain controller connectivity, which the branch office lacks.
