When using BlackBerry devices, what level of connectivity is required between the cDir application server and BES?
The following connectivity is required: • The cDir application needs to be able to reach the BES/MDS Server by name or IP Address over HTTP. • The server(s) where BES and MDS are hosted need(s) to be able to access the web server where cDir is installed by Name over HTTP. • cDir needs to be able to send a SQL Ping* to the SQL Server (only applies to the Enterprise version for the secondary BES Database Servers). Our recommendation is to host cDir on an internal server, not an external one. [* a SQL Ping, as opposed to a normal ICMP Ping, will actually test if anything listens to port 1434 on the machine where the SQL Server is hosted].
