Read the first 7 Casper System Setup & Configuration flashcards as text

  1. A technician needs to configure Casper to automatically assign a configuration profile when a Mac joins a specific LDAP group. Which JSS feature enables this?

    Answer: Smart Computer Groups with LDAP user group criteria

    Smart Computer Groups can use LDAP user group membership as dynamic criteria, automatically including or excluding computers when users' LDAP groups change.

  2. When configuring Casper Imaging for a multicast imaging session, what is the primary advantage over unicast imaging?

    Answer: A single image stream is sent once and received by multiple clients simultaneously, reducing server load

    Multicast imaging sends one stream that all clients receive simultaneously, dramatically reducing network bandwidth consumption compared to individual unicast streams.

  3. Which Casper setting controls whether computers are allowed to submit duplicate inventory records to the JSS?

    Answer: Recurring Check-In > Enable Recon

    The Recurring Check-In settings control whether clients run Recon at each check-in, which determines how frequently inventory is updated and whether duplicates can form.

  4. A Casper technician is setting up a file share distribution point. Which shared directory name is used by default for Casper packages?

    Answer: CasperShare

    The default share name for Casper file share distribution points is 'CasperShare', which clients connect to when downloading packages.

  5. When enabling LDAP integration in the JSS for user lookups, which LDAP attribute is typically mapped to the Casper 'Username' field for Active Directory?

    Answer: sAMAccountName

    In Active Directory, 'sAMAccountName' is the standard attribute mapped to the Casper username field as it represents the short-form login name.

  6. A technician configures a Casper policy with a 'Maintenance' payload. Which action does the Maintenance payload perform?

    Answer: Runs system maintenance tasks such as verifying startup disk and rebuilding Spotlight index

    The Casper Maintenance payload executes macOS maintenance routines including disk verification, cache rebuilding, and Spotlight reindexing.

  7. In Casper Suite, which feature allows administrators to restrict what management actions a JSS admin account can perform?

    Answer: Privilege sets assigned to JSS user accounts

    JSS administrator accounts can be assigned custom privilege sets that limit which objects, actions, and sections of the JSS they can access.
