Install a standalone
BlackBerry Router

The
BlackBerry Router
 is an optional component that you can install in a DMZ outside of your organization's firewall. The
BlackBerry Router
 connects to the Internet to send data between
BlackBerry UEM
 and devices that use the
BlackBerry Infrastructure
. The
BlackBerry Router
 functions as a proxy server and can support SOCKS v5 (no authentication). For more information about configuring the
BlackBerry Router
 as a TCP proxy server, see the Configuration content.
  • Note that you must install a standalone
    BlackBerry Router
     on a computer that does not host any other
    UEM
     components.
  • The installer for the
    BlackBerry Router
     requires JRE 17.
  • If the server is not part of a domain, you must specify the service account credentials as server name\user. For more information about configuring the service account, see Configure permissions for the service account.
  1. On the computer where you want to install the
    BlackBerry Router
    , download and extract the
    UEM
     Installation file (.zip).
  2. In the
    router
     folder, extract the
    mdm.deployment.router
     zip file.
  3. In the
    Installer
     folder, double-click the
    Setup.exe
     file to install the
    BlackBerry Router
    .
    The installation runs in the background and displays no dialog boxes. Once the installation completes, the
    BlackBerry Router
     service appears in the Services window.
