Configure the BlackBerry Administration Service to use HTTP basic authentication
You use
the BlackBerry Enterprise Trait Tool to configure the BlackBerry Administration Service to use HTTP basic authentication to authenticate with a proxy server. HTTP basic
authentication requires a username and password for authentication.
- On a computer that hosts a BlackBerry Administration Service instance, in the BlackBerry Enterprise Service 10 installation files, navigate to the tools folder and run TraitTool.exe as an administrator.
- Type traittool -BASServer <server_name> -trait BASProxyBasicAuthUID -set <user_name>, where <server_name> is the name of the computer that hosts the BlackBerry Administration Service instance and <user_name> is the username (for example, user1@blackberry.com or blackberry.com\user01) for the computer.
- Type traittool -BASServer <server_name> -trait BASProxyBasicAuthPassword -set <password>, where <server_name> is the name of the computer that hosts the BlackBerry Administration Service instance and <password> is the password for the computer.
After you finish: Repeat this task on each computer that hosts a BlackBerry Administration Service instance.
