Microsoft 365 Endpoint Administrator Associate MD-102 Practice Question
Your company is deploying new Windows 11 devices by using Windows Autopilot. You need every computer name to start with EMP- and end with a unique, randomly generated string that contains exactly five alphanumeric characters. The complete name must always stay within the 15-character NetBIOS limit. Which device name template should you configure in the Autopilot deployment profile?
Using the %RAND:x% variable lets Intune append a random alphanumeric string whose exact length is defined by the value of x. A prefix of EMP- is four characters long, so specifying %RAND:5% produces names that are 4 (prefix) + 5 (random string) = 9 characters, well under the 15-character limit and meeting the requirement for a five-character suffix. The plain %RAND% variable defaults to six characters, which would not meet the exact-length requirement. %SERIAL% substitutes the full hardware serial number, which can easily push the name past 15 characters. %RAND:12% would exceed the limit because the total length would be 4 + 12 = 16 characters.
