If there are multiple lines in the Device State column. the user has multiple devices. Hover over the device state icon to display the device ID.

The Device State column displays the following states that indicate the status of each device’s connection to the Mobility system:

An individual device has been manually blocked on the User/Device Actions page because it was having a problem that was adversely affecting the Mobility system.
Quarantined	A new device is being prevented from connecting until you release it from the device quarantine.
