Installing the BlackBerry Connectivity Node
BlackBerry Connectivity Node
The
BlackBerry Connectivity Node
allows you to create a secure connection between Cylance Endpoint Security
and an on-premises Microsoft Active
Directory
or LDAP directory. Cylance Endpoint Security
can synchronize devices, users, and groups from Active
Directory
. Users created through directory synchronization can be enabled for the CylancePROTECT Mobile
app, CylanceGATEWAY
, and CylanceAVERT
. You can install one or more instances of the
BlackBerry Connectivity Node
to provide redundancy. Each instance must be installed on a dedicated computer. If you have more than one BlackBerry Connectivity Node
, you must upgrade them all to the same software release. After you upgrade the first instance, directory services are disabled until all instances are upgraded to the same version.You can configure one or more directory connections, but if you have multiple instances of the
BlackBerry Connectivity Node
, all of the directory connections must be configured identically in every instance. If one directory connection is missing or incorrectly configured, that BlackBerry Connectivity Node
will appear as disabled in the management console.You don't need to install the
BlackBerry Connectivity Node
to synchronize with Microsoft Entra ID
Active
Directory
. For more information, see "Configure Cylance Endpoint Security to synchronize with Entra Active Directory." To install the
