Routing 
BlackBerry Dynamics
 app data through 
BlackBerry Proxy

In the 
BlackBerry Dynamics
 connectivity profile, you can specify the servers that your users' 
BlackBerry Dynamics
 apps are allowed to access through the firewall using 
BlackBerry Proxy
.
Routing traffic through 
BlackBerry Proxy
 has the following benefits:
  • Web browsers and 
    BlackBerry Dynamics
     apps on devices can connect to any server behind the firewall that is reachable by 
    BlackBerry Proxy
    .
  • You can easily monitor data traffic between 
    BlackBerry Dynamics
     apps and your resources.
For apps developed with the 
BlackBerry Dynamics
 SDK version 6.0 and later, you can specify the 
BlackBerry Proxy
 clusters that data must route through.
If you have 
BlackBerry UEM
 in an on-premises environment, for apps developed with a version of the 
BlackBerry Dynamics
 SDK, earlier than 6.0, you select the Route all traffic option to route all 
BlackBerry Dynamics
 app data, regardless of domain or subnet, through 
BlackBerry Proxy
.
You should be aware of the following considerations when you route data through 
BlackBerry Proxy
:
  • Establishing connections to servers on the Internet can take longer.
  • If you are using a web proxy to allow access to external sites and have settings configured in your proxy to restrict certain sites, when you select the Route all traffic option, you also need to set the proxy properties in 
    BlackBerry Proxy
    . Otherwise, apps will not be able to access external sites. For more information on configuring 
    BlackBerry Proxy
     settings, see the on-premises Configuration content or the Cloud Configuration content.
  • BlackBerry Access
     can be configured with a PAC file that determines allowable sites. In this case, the PAC file determines the proxy settings. For more information, see the BlackBerry Access Administration Guide.
