Connectivity

Connectivity refers to the following items:
  • Local connectivity
    : Local connectivity provides the connection between the local computers that
    BlackBerry AtHoc
    is installed on. Specifically, it is connectivity between the application server (or servers) and the database machine (or machines.)
  • Serving HTTP or HTTPS
    : The application servers provide HTTP or HTTPS service to web browsers and the
    BlackBerry AtHoc
    desktop app. For HTTPS configuration, a Web PKI certificate must be installed on the web servers.
  • Accessing external HTTP or HTTPS sources
    : External HTTP or HTTPS sources are used for integration with external applications and data sources used by the application server IWS Services. This connectivity can be configured through a proxy (an authenticating proxy is not supported). If an external telephony calling service is used, web connectivity from the application servers to the calling service must be established.
  • A firewall
    : To protect the
    BlackBerry AtHoc
    platform.
