If you want to control BlackBerry® Device Software updates, you can configure the BlackBerry Administration Service to display the required administration pages. If you configure this option, wireless service providers are not permitted to send BlackBerry Device Software updates and users cannot request BlackBerry Device Software updates from their BlackBerry devices. You can send only required BlackBerry Device Software updates using the BlackBerry Administration Service.

By default, only the security and enterprise administrative roles can perform BlackBerry Device Software update tasks and manage the update process using the BlackBerry Administration Service.
