Install a standalone BlackBerry Router
A standalone BlackBerry® Router is a BlackBerry Router
that is hosted by a computer that does not host any other BlackBerry® Enterprise Server Express components except the BlackBerry Controller. The BlackBerry Controller
monitors the BlackBerry Router
and restarts the BlackBerry Router
if it stops responding.
Note: You cannot manage the BlackBerry Controller that monitors a standalone BlackBerry Router
in the BlackBerry Administration Service. You must manage the BlackBerry Controller in the BlackBerry Configuration Panel on the computer that hosts the standalone BlackBerry Router.
