Configuring

BlackBerry UEM

to send data through a proxy server

You can configure

UEM

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

BlackBerry Infrastructure

.

By default,

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

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

UEM

. Only the proxy server connects to

UEM

from outside the firewall. All connections to the

BlackBerry Infrastructure

between

UEM

and devices go through the proxy server.

To use a proxy server with the

BlackBerry Connectivity Node

, you can install the

BlackBerry Router

to act as a proxy server, or you can use a TCP proxy server that is already installed in your organization's environment.

You can install the

BlackBerry Router

or a proxy server outside your organization’s firewall in a DMZ. Installing the

BlackBerry Router

or a TCP proxy server in a DMZ provides an extra level of security. Only the

BlackBerry Router

or the proxy server connects to the

BlackBerry Connectivity Node

from outside the firewall. All connections to the

BlackBerry Infrastructure

between the

BlackBerry Connectivity Node

and devices go through the proxy server.

By default, the

BlackBerry Connectivity Node

connects directly to the
