Data flow: Receiving configuration updates on a 
Windows 10
 device

Diagram showing the steps and components mentioned in the following data flow.
  1. An action is taken in the management console that triggers a configuration update for a 
    Windows 10
     device. For example, you update the IT policy or assign a new profile or app to the user account. 
  2. Updates are applied in 
    BlackBerry UEM
    , and objects that must be shared with the device are identified.
  3. The 
    BlackBerry UEM Core
     contacts the 
    BlackBerry Infrastructure
    , through the 
    BlackBerry Router
     or TCP proxy server, if installed, and the external firewall over port 3101.
  4. The 
    BlackBerry Infrastructure
     uses the WNS to notify the device that an update is pending.
  5. The WNS sends a notification to the device to contact the 
    BlackBerry UEM Core
  6. When the device receives the notification, it contacts the 
    BlackBerry UEM Core
    , on port 3101 on the external firewall, passing through the 
    BlackBerry Router
     or TCP proxy server, if installed, to retrieve any pending actions.
  7. When an update is pending for the device, the 
    BlackBerry UEM Core
     replies with the highest priority action. Priority is given to device actions, such as Delete device data and Lock device. If necessary, additional information is included in the response. If no actions or commands are pending for the device, the 
    BlackBerry UEM Core
     replies to the device with an empty message. 
  8. The device inspects the response, schedules the command to be processed, and waits for the command to be run. The device sends a response to the 
    BlackBerry UEM Core
     to update the command status. The status indicates whether the command ran successfully and provides an error message in the event of a failure.
    Steps 7 and 8 are repeated until no more actions or commands are pending for the device.
