Install a standalone
BlackBerry Router
in a
UEM Cloud
environment

The
BlackBerry Router
is an optional component that you can install in a DMZ outside your organization's firewall. The
BlackBerry Router
connects to the Internet to send data between the
BlackBerry Connectivity Node
and devices that use the
BlackBerry Infrastructure
. The
BlackBerry Router
functions as a proxy server and can support SOCKS v5 (no authentication).
You can configure multiple instances of the
BlackBerry Router
for high availability. You configure only one port for
BlackBerry Router
instances to listen on. By default, the
BlackBerry Connectivity Node
connects to the
BlackBerry Router
using port 3102. The
BlackBerry Router
supports all outbound traffic from the
BlackBerry Connectivity Node
components.
You must install a standalone
BlackBerry Router
on a computer that does not host an instance of the
BlackBerry Connectivity Node
.
