Connecting BlackBerry Enterprise Service 10 to a company directory

You can connect BlackBerry Enterprise Service 10 to your company directory so that it can access the list of users in your organization. BlackBerry Enterprise Service 10 accesses the company directory to create user accounts, authenticate users when they activate devices, authenticate administrators for the BlackBerry Enterprise Service 10 consoles, and allow single sign-on among the consoles. If you do not connect BlackBerry Enterprise Service 10 to a company directory, you can create local user accounts and authenticate administrators using default authentication.

You can connect BlackBerry Enterprise Service 10 to Microsoft Active Directory or an LDAP directory.

You must configure the BlackBerry Device Service and the Universal Device Service to connect to a company directory.
