How to check if two network interfaces belong to the same Intune-managed device?

In this topic, you will learn how to use session details to check if two network interfaces belong to the same Intune-managed device, and therefore are treated as a single device and consume only one license.

  1. On the Alerts screen, find an authentication alert for the network interface that you want to check, and click on the Session details link.

  2. In the Session details window, select the Certificate option in the left-hand side menu, and then scroll to the Subject alternative name section. If there is a value in the Urls row that begins with https://intunedeviceid/, note down the value after the last / symbol.

    Note: If there is no value in the Urls row or the value does not begin with https://intunedeviceid/, the device is either not managed by Intune, or the SCEP settings in Intune are incorrect. As a result, this network interface cannot be associated with an Intune-managed device, and will consume a separate license.
  3. If necessary, repeat the steps above for another network interface and compare the values in the Urls field. If the values are the same, the interfaces are associated with the same device and do not consume extra licenses.
Note: To include the Intune device ID in the certificate obtained by SCEP, follow the steps in our Intune guides, for example: Onboard Windows devices with certificates using Microsoft Intune and SCEP. If you use your own certificate authority for clients and distribute them, for example, using group policy, you must add this information to each certificate or else Portnox Cloud will have no way to associate network interfaces to devices.
