Specify the DNS settings for the
BlackBerry Connectivity
 app

You can specify the DNS servers that you want the
BlackBerry Connectivity
 app to use for secure tunnel connections. You can also specify DNS search suffixes. If you do not specify DNS settings, the app obtains DNS addresses from the computer that hosts the
BlackBerry Secure Connect Plus
 component, and the default search suffix is the DNS domain of that computer.
If you create and configure one or more server groups to direct
BlackBerry Secure Connect Plus
 connections to a specific regional path to the
BlackBerry Infrastructure
, you can specify DNS settings specific to each server group. If you do, the DNS settings for a server group take precedence over the global DNS settings that you specify using the following steps. For more information about creating and configuring server groups, see the on-premises Installation and upgrade content or the
UEM Cloud
 Configuration content.
  1. Perform one of the following actions:
    • In an on-premises environment, in the
      UEM
       management console, on the menu bar click
      Settings > Infrastructure > BlackBerry Secure Connect Plus
      .
    • In a cloud environment, in the
      BlackBerry Connectivity Node
       console (http:/localhost:8088), in the left pane, click
      General settings > BlackBerry Secure Connect Plus
      .
  2. Select the
    Manually configure DNS servers
     check box and click The Add icon.
  3. Type the DNS server address in dot-decimal notation (for example, 192.0.2.0). Click
    Add
    .
  4. If necessary, repeat steps 2 and 3 to add more DNS servers. In the
    DNS servers
     table, click the arrows in the
    Ranking
     column to set the priority for the DNS servers.
  5. If you want to specify DNS search suffixes, complete the following steps:
    1. Select the
      Manage DNS search suffixes manually
       check box and click The Add icon.
    2. Type the DNS search suffix (for example, domain.com). Click
      Add
      .
  6. If necessary, repeat step 5 to add more DNS search suffixes. In the
    DNS search suffix
     table, click the arrows in the
    Ranking
     column to set the priority for the DNS servers.
