Configure the
CylanceGATEWAY Connector

You can complete various tasks in the
CylanceGATEWAY Connector
 web interface. If your network has multiple instances of the
CylanceGATEWAY Connector
 installed and configured, the tasks must be completed on each
CylanceGATEWAY Connector
 instance in your environment as necessary. You can view the status of all the connectors in your environment on the Gateway Connectors page in the management console. You can view the status of each
CylanceGATEWAY Connector
 in the web browser. For more information, see View details for an enrolled CylanceGATEWAY Connector
Verify that you have one or more
CylanceGATEWAY Connector
 instances deployed.
  1. In a web browser, navigate to the IP address of your
    CylanceGATEWAY Connector
    .
  2. Enter your credentials and click
    Sign in
    .
  3. Complete any of the following tasks:
    Tasks
    Steps
    Edit settings.
    You can specify one or more of the following settings (optional).
    1. Click
      Settings
      .
    2. Complete one or more of the following settings:
      • Generate a new self-signed TLS certificate: You can regenerate the TLS certificate at any time. By default, the certificate is valid for one year. The web interface displays the certificate expiry day and time, the serial number, and host that is bound to the certificate. Each time that you generate a new TLS certificate, you are prompted to accept the new certificate.
      • HTTP/S Proxy configuration: If your environment is configured with an unauthenticated proxy server that is used for Internet-destined HTTP and HTTPS requests, you can enter the URL of the proxy. When the proxy URL is added, HTTPS requests to the
        BlackBerry Infrastructure
         made by the
        CylanceGATEWAY Connector
         will use the proxy. Tunnel traffic will not use the proxy. 
      • Maximum Transfer Unit (MTU) configuration: By default, the
        CylanceGATEWAY Connector
         automatically detects the MTU of your network. In some instances, you might need to specify the MTU value that the
        CylanceGATEWAY Connector
         can use.
        BlackBerry
         recommends that you use automatic detection.
        If you specify the MTU and want to use automatic detection, you must restart the
        CylanceGATEWAY Connector
         from within the
        vSphere
        ,
        Hyper-V
        ,
        Microsoft Entra ID
        ,
        AWS
        , or
        ESXi
         environment.
      • Network Time Protocol (NTP) configuration: By default, the
        CylanceGATEWAY Connector
         uses
        Ubuntu
        's ntp.ubuntu.com server for time synchronization. You can specify a custom NTP server.
      • Advanced Package Tool (APT) configuration: By default, the
        CylanceGATEWAY Connector
         uses
        Ubuntu
        's repository hosts, archive.ubuntu.com and security.ubuntu.com. For more information, visit support.blackberry.com/community and read article 79017. You can specify a custom package repository that the
        CylanceGATEWAY Connector
         uses. Note that security updates are applied automatically, and you must restart the
        CylanceGATEWAY Connector
         in the management console for updates to take affect.
    3. Complete one of the following:
      • Click
        Update settings
         to save the changes on the Settings screen.
      • Click
        Restore default settings
         to restore all of the default settings. You must enter your credentials for the changes to take affect. Network connectivity might be interrupted (for example, if you specify an MTU the
        CylanceGATEWAY Connector
         must be restarted).
      • Click
        Factory Reset
         to erase all
        CylanceGATEWAY Connector
         configurations, including the self-signed TLS certificate. The
        CylanceGATEWAY Connector
         must be restarted and will result in a network connectivity interruption.
    Change administrator password.
    You can change the administrator password for the
    CylanceGATEWAY Connector
     password at any time. This does not change the administrator password that is used for
    CylanceGATEWAY Connector
     access in the
    vSphere
    ,
    Hyper-V
    ,
    Microsoft Entra ID
    ,
    AWS
    , or
    ESXi
     environment. Each time that you change the password, you are prompted to log in again using the new password.
    1. Click
      Change admin password
      .
    2. Enter the current administrator password.
    3. Enter and confirm your new password.
    4. Click
      Change password
