Permit users to create activation passwords using the BlackBerry Web Desktop Manager

You can specify whether the BlackBerry Web Desktop Manager permits users to create their own activation passwords so that they can activate their BlackBerry devices over the wireless network. By default, users can create their own activation passwords. If you do not permit users to create their own activation passwords, in the BlackBerry Web Desktop Manager, the Device setup screen in the Advanced Settings tab is hidden.
  1. In the BlackBerry Administration Service, in the Servers and components menu, expand BlackBerry Solution Topology > BlackBerry Domain > Component view.
  2. Click BlackBerry Administration Service.
  3. Click Edit component.
  4. On the BlackBerry Web Desktop Manager information tab, perform one of the following actions:
    • To prevent users from creating their own activation passwords, change Allow user self-activation wirelessly to No.
    • To permit users to create their own activation passwords, change Allow user self-activation wirelessly to Yes.
  5. Click Save all.
