Answer 1

You have registered your device against the Push service endpoint. This is different from the Devices registration from MobileFirst SDK that shows up in the Devices console.

MobileFirst console lists devices only registered using Apps built with MobileFirst SDKs.

If you are only registering your device for Push, it does not appear in the console. If you want your device appearing in the Devices console, do Push device registration within a mobile app and not using confidential client.
