Configure BEMS connectivity with BlackBerry
Dynamics
BEMS
connectivity with BlackBerry
Dynamics
The
BlackBerry
Dynamics
server information in the following instructions refers to the FQDN of the server that hosts the BlackBerry Proxy
service. Complete this task to specify which BlackBerry Proxy
that the Connect
service should use to complete processes (for example, authentication requests). You can specify the BlackBerry Proxy
server that the Connect service contacts first. When you specify the BlackBerry Proxy
, it forces BEMS
to always communicate with this BlackBerry Proxy
server first. The Connect service uses the BlackBerry Proxy
server to create a list of BlackBerry Proxy
servers to use. If the BlackBerry Proxy
server that you specified in the BEMS
Dashboard fails, then the Connect service contacts the next primary BlackBerry Proxy
server in the list.In the
BlackBerry UEM
environment, the BlackBerry Proxy
service is installed on the on-premises BlackBerry UEM
servers that have BlackBerry Connectivity Node
. The BlackBerry Connectivity Node
is required for some BlackBerry UEM Cloud
deployments when they link a company directory to the BlackBerry UEM Cloud
tenant and to offer on-premises connectivity to BlackBerry
Dynamics
users activated using the BlackBerry UEM Cloud
. For more information about the BlackBerry Connectivity Node
, see the BlackBerry UEM
