Configuring Blackouts
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 window:
|

|
From the Profiles tab, select the Mobile Device Server profile from the Profile List. |

From the Blackouts and Updates tab: |
|
•
|
if you want to create a server-to-server blackout window, click the Add button in the Server-to-Server Communication Restrictions area. |
|
•
|
if you want to create a device-to-server restriction window, click the Add button in the Device-to-Server Communication Restrictions area. |
The Add Blackout Window dialog box appears.

|
Select the start and end time of the blackout window, and enable the boxes for the days you want the blackout to apply. |
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.
