Wireless enterprise activation enables a user to remotely activate a handheld on the BlackBerry Enterprise Server without a physical network connection. Users must ensure that they are in an area with sufficient wireless coverage when the wireless enterprise activation is attempted. Wireless enterprise activation can also be used to deploy a large quantity of BlackBerry handhelds. This paper describes how administrators can enable wireless enterprise activation for users on the BlackBerry Enterprise Server, and how users can initiate wireless enterprise activation from their handhelds. The paper pays particular attention to the key establishment protocols that secure the connection between the BlackBerry Enterprise Server and the handheld.
