Hmm, I'm not so sure. What if option B is the answer? The question does mention 'automatic updating of iOS devices', so configuring that in the Meraki profile could be the way to go. I'm torn between B and D now.

You know, I was thinking the same thing. Although option A says automatic updating is the default, I doubt that's the case when the apps are provisioned through a specific management tool like Systems Manager. Better to be safe and set up a profile to handle the updates.

It's always better to have a specific profile set up for these things. Option B seems like a good choice as well.

I agree, option D does seem like the most likely answer. Configuring automatic updating in the Meraki profile or creating a security policy doesn't quite seem like the right approach for this scenario. The question specifically mentions apps provisioned through Systems Manager, so a custom profile seems like the way to go.

Hmm, this question seems a bit tricky. I'm not entirely sure about the correct answer, but I have a feeling it might be option D. Applying a profile with automatic update enabled seems like the logical step to ensure iOS apps are automatically updated.
