Configuring

BlackBerry UEM

to send data through a proxy server

You can configure

BlackBerry UEM

to send data through a TCP proxy server before it reaches the

BlackBerry Infrastructure

.

By default,

BlackBerry UEM

connects directly to the

BlackBerry Infrastructure

using port 3101. If your organization's security policy requires that internal systems cannot connect directly to the Internet, you can install a TCP proxy server. The TCP proxy server acts as an intermediary between

BlackBerry UEM

and the

BlackBerry Infrastructure

.

You can install a proxy server outside your organization’s firewall in a DMZ. Installing a TCP proxy server in a DMZ provides an extra level of security for

BlackBerry UEM

. Only the proxy server connects to

BlackBerry UEM

from outside the firewall. All connections to the

BlackBerry Infrastructure

between

BlackBerry UEM

and devices go through the proxy server.

This image shows the following options for sending data through a proxy server to the

BlackBerry Infrastructure

: no proxy server, and a TCP proxy server deployed in a DMZ.
