I would have to agree. We did not need to open any incoming ports on our
firewall to make the software work.

Blackberry Enterprise server initiates the connection so no additional
incoming ports need to be opened.

Security-Basics -

We have a client that is thinking about having Blackberry Enterprise
Server installed on their Small Business Server.  My first thought is,
since this requires punching a hole through the firewall that we do not
have an application layer proxy for, that this should exist on a
demilitarized zone.  Has anyone deployed the Blackberry Enterprise
Server in a manner that they felt was secure?  If so, what was done.

Thanks,

- Nicholas
