Configure the
BlackBerry Wired Activation Tool
 and log in to a
BlackBerry UEM
 instance

Before you can activate devices with the
BlackBerry Wired Activation Tool
, you must create a configuration for each
BlackBerry UEM
 instance you need to access. After you create a configuration, you must also use an administrator account to allow the
BlackBerry Wired Activation Tool
 to access
BlackBerry Web Services
.
  1. In the
    BlackBerry Wired Activation Tool
     installation folder, double-click the
    BWAT.exe
     file.
  2. In the
    Add a BES12 server screen
    , in the
    Name
     field, type a name to identify the configuration you're creating. For example, if you have two
    BlackBerry UEM
     instances, you might create a configuration for each one and name them Server 1 and Server 2.
  3. In the
    BlackBerry Web Services URL
     field, type the address for the
    BlackBerry Web Services
     component. The default address is https://
    <BlackBerry UEM web address>
    :18084.
    You can change the port by modifying the
    tomcat.bws.port
     setting in the
    BlackBerry UEM
     database.
  4. In the
    BCP Endpoint URL
     field, type the address to use for device activations. This is also known as the Activation URL or Server name. The default address is: http://
    server.name
    :8882/
    SRP_ID
    /mdm.
    You can find the address by making sure the %ActivationURL% variable is in the Activation email template and clicking
    View activation email
     from any User summary screen.
    If necessary, you can also look up the host address and port in the
    BlackBerry UEM
     database. In the
    def_cfg_setting_dfn
     table, find the
    id_setting_definition
     values for
    bdmi.enroll.bcp.host
     and
    bdmi.enroll.bcp.port
    . Then use the
    id_setting_definition
     values to look up the values of those settings in the
    obj_global_cfg_setting
    .
  5. Click
    Submit
    .

     screen, select a
