Permit push applications to select the
transport protocol for PAP requests
By default, when a push application sends a PAP request to the BlackBerry MDS Connection Service, the BlackBerry MDS
Connection Service directs requests to an HTTPS port. Because some applications require an HTTP port, you may want to
change this default setting. You can configure the BlackBerry MDS Connection Service to permit the push application to
select the transport protocol (HTTP or HTTPS) for PAP requests.

Configuring a BlackBerry MDS Connection
Service to trust web servers
You can configure the BlackBerry MDS Connection Service to permit BlackBerry devices to pull application data and
updates from trusted or untrusted web servers. If you want to open trusted connections between web servers and the
BlackBerry MDS Connection Service, you must import the certificate for the web server into the JRE certificates keystore
file (JRE cacerts).
The BlackBerry MDS Connection Service supports LDAP, OCSP, and CRL to retrieve certificates and certificate status, and
HTTPS and SSL/TLS for connections that use trusted certificates.
