Android
: Enterprise connectivity profile settings

Setting
Description
Enable
BlackBerry Secure Connect Plus
This setting specifies whether work apps use
BlackBerry Secure Connect Plus
for sending work data between devices and your network.
Enterprise connectivity for
Android
devices with a work space
This setting specifies whether
Android Enterprise
and
Samsung Knox Workspace
devices use
BlackBerry Secure Connect Plus
for all apps in the work space, or only for specified apps.
  • "Container wide VPN" uses a VPN connection for all apps in the work space on the device.
  • "Per-app VPN" uses a VPN connection only for specified apps.
Apps restricted from using
BlackBerry Secure Connect Plus
This setting specifies apps in the work space on
Android Enterprise
devices that are not allowed to use
BlackBerry Secure Connect Plus
.
If the “Force work apps to only use VPN” IT policy rule is applied to the device, this setting is ignored and no work apps, including the
BlackBerry UEM Client
and
Google Play
, are restricted from using BlackBerry Secure Connect Plus. In this case you will have to open ports in the firewall to allow the
UEM Client
to communicate with the
BlackBerry Infrastructure
through
UEM
. For more information about opening ports in the firewall when work apps use
BlackBerry Secure Connect Plus
, see KB 48330.
If your organization uses
BlackBerry Dynamics
apps, it is recommended that you restrict the apps from using
BlackBerry Secure Connect Plus
. If you don't, you must open additional ports in your organization’s firewall to allow the apps to send data to the
BlackBerry Dynamics NOC
, and network activity from the apps might be delayed because data is routed to both the
BlackBerry Infrastructure
and
BlackBerry Dynamics NOC
. See Optimize secure tunnel connections for Android devices that use BlackBerry Dynamics apps.
This setting is valid only if the "Enterprise connectivity for
Android
devices with a work space" setting is set to "Container wide VPN."
Apps allowed to use Enterprise Connectivity
This setting specifies apps in the work space on
Android Enterprise
and
Samsung Knox Workspace
devices that are allowed to use
BlackBerry Secure Connect Plus
. You can select apps from a list of available apps or specify the app package ID.
This setting is valid only if the "Enterprise connectivity for
Android
devices with a work space" setting is set to "Per-app VPN."
Proxy profile
You can select a proxy profile that you configured to route secure tunnel traffic through a proxy server. This option is supported for devices with
Android Enterprise
activation types.
BlackBerry Secure Connect Plus
supports both PAC configuration and manual configuration of the proxy server in the proxy profile, but take note of the limitations detailed under setHttpProxy from developer.android.com.
Web proxy support for
BlackBerry Secure Connect Plus
requires the
BlackBerry Connectivity
app version 1.0.25.x or later and
UEM Client
12.44.x or later.
