To allow you more control over bandwidth usage, Avalanche uses blackout windows and update restrictions in the Mobile Device Server profile. During a server-to-server blackout, the Mobile Device Server is not allowed to communicate with the Enterprise Server. During a device-to-server restriction, the Mobile Device Server is not allowed to communicate with mobile devices.
To create a blackout/exclusion window:
1 | From the Profiles tab, click on the Mobile Device Server profile from the Available Profile panel. |
2 | The Mobile Device Server Profile Details page appears. Click Edit. |
3 | If you want to create a server-to-server blackout window, click the New button in the Server-to-Server Communications Restrictions panel. |
- Or -
If you want to create a device-to-server exclusion window, click the New button in the Device-to-Server Communication Restrictions panel.
4 | The New Blackout/Exclusion Window dialog box appears. Type the start and end time of the blackout window. Enable the boxes for the days you want the blackout to apply and click Save. |
Note: Blackout windows are scheduled using a 24-hour clock. If you create a window where the start time is later than the end time, the window will continue to the end time on the following day. For example, if you scheduled a window for 20:00 to 10:00 on Saturday, it would run from Saturday 20:00 until Sunday 10:00.
