Configuring manual proxy selection for a BlackBerry Administration Service instance
Depending on the operating system on the computer that hosts the BlackBerry Administration Service instance, you can use the Proxy Configuration Tool or the Network Shell Utility to manually select a proxy server for a BlackBerry Administration Service instance. You must configure manual proxy selection for all of the computers that host a BlackBerry Administration Service instance. Both the Proxy Configuration Tool and the Network Shell Utility store the proxy server settings in the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\Connections\WinHttpSettings registry key. You must run both tools as an administrator.
- For 32-bit Windows operating systems, the Proxy Configuration Tool is located at c:\Windows\system32\.
- For 64-bit Windows operating systems, the Proxy Configuration Tool is located at c:\Windows\sysWow64\.
