Which enrollment type can supervise an iPad?

Automated Device Enrollment is the correct choice for supervising an iPad because it allows devices to be automatically enrolled in a Mobile Device Management (MDM) system during the initial setup process. This method takes advantage of Apple's Device Enrollment Program (DEP), which not only facilitates the mass deployment of devices but also enables supervision—a management feature that grants administrators more control over the device's settings and restrictions.

When a device is supervised, it can be remotely managed more stringently, allowing features such as preventing users from removing the MDM profile, configuring certain settings, and enforcing restrictions that would not be possible with unsupervised devices. Automated Device Enrollment makes this seamless, as it automatically configures supervision without any manual intervention needed from the user.

The other options, such as Manual Configuration, Bulk Enrollment, and User Initiated Enrollment, do not provide the same level of management and control over the device. Manual Configuration might involve setting up devices individually, which can be time-consuming and does not ensure supervision if not set up properly. Bulk Enrollment does allow for simultaneous enrollment but typically involves a more limited set of management features than those provided through Automated Device Enrollment. User Initiated Enrollment puts the onus on the user to enroll their device and may not offer supervision at all
