Create a gatekeeping profile

 server groups for automatic gatekeeping.
If you are using

 server groups, select the appropriate server group that has one or more active instances of the
BlackBerry Gatekeeping Service
. Any user that is assigned this gatekeeping profile can use any active instance of the
BlackBerry Gatekeeping Service
 in that server group.
