WSO2 EMM uses various notification methods to send the device its corresponding list of pending operations. The notification method will vary based on the type of the mobile OS.

...

The local notification method will not use Google Cloud Messaging (GCM), but it will use its own local push notification service. The Android Agent within the Android device will trigger a wake-up command every one minute. The wake-up command will be triggered periodically based on the notifier frequency, which determines the time period after which the wake-up command will be automatically triggered by the Android Agent. The notifier frequency needs to be specified in milliseconds (ms) when configuring Android tenant-based settings. The default notifier frequency is 60000ms, which translates to one minute.

Note
titleNote

From Android 4.4 (KitKat) onwards the OS does not allow applications to schedule repeating alarms for time durations less than a minute. Therefore, make sure to set the notifier frequency to 60000ms or more. 

When the wake-up command is triggered the Android Agent will communicate with WSO2 EMM server and receive the list of pending operations that need to be executed on the respective device.

...

If you wish to enable the Local notification method, you need to select Local as the notification type and set the notifier frequency to a value greater than zeroor equal to 60000ms.
