Blackberry 10 Server install

ah found the kb32547 article.

i assume this isn't the issue as the port changes are local, and is probably firewall related?

Unsure of routing service?  What/where is this?
I have installed BDS and MDM only.
No, i have already ran through this kb and changed the ports during install.

right, so we need to setup the router even if we dont have a dmz?

Yes. They just make it so you can put it in the DMZ if you would prefer.

Yes, i need a blackberry router on the BDS 10 server?  If so that could be the problem then.  i have re-ran the installer (not installed UDS) and can't see any option for blackberry router...

Sorry. I just saw this. I will get a screen shot up loaded.

Ah, well i dont get this screen!!!!!!

Are you running it on a box that already has BDS installed? It has to be installed on a separate system (or VM).

yes all on one box...
really, thats annoying..

So will this resolve my OTA registrations???

It should, although without being familiar with everything in your environment I cannot guarantee that fact. I know you you need it to function correctly.

can it be installed on the bes5 server?

No. It would conflict with the BES 5 router. None of the BDS features and services can be installed on a system running previous versions of BES.

so i need this part of BDS for OTA activations but cannot install it on the same server?

I stand corrected. While verifying the answer to your question. I did find a KB where you can configure it to use your existing BES router service.

However, you would need to eventually stand up a stand alone router if you eventually decommission your BES 5.0 environment.

strange thing is im sure i have already tried this...  Will give it another go

Did you get this working through your 5.0 BES?

In short no.  Its a bit odd though.  We now have activesync up and running on the exchange side.  If we setup activesync the playbook can talk to exchange and it sets up the email and prompts for work/balance area.
Still unable to register OTA and have got the BES5 server and port number in the BES10 BDS side of things.

The next thing im looking at now is building a new VM for the BES10 router...

Are the Playbooks Wi-Fi only? The ones we have are, so they work over the internal network to activate.

No, i have the newer 3g one that doesn't rely on wifi/bridge...
Just read that the devices OS needs to be at v2.1 for OTA activations.  Our is at 2.0.1.668...

Got the router installed on another VM and configured BDS to use that server for routing.
Not had chance to test it properly though.

Also found playbook 3g cannot activate OTA with v2.0.  Must be v2.1 to register...
