Registering or Reregistering Application Connections

Use Sybase Control Center to trigger the registration of an application connection, or reregister an application connection when the activation code has expired.

  1. In the left navigation pane, click the Applications node.
  2. In the right administration pane, click the Application Connections tab.
  3. Choose an action:
    • Click Register to register a new application connection. Using the Activation Code, this application is then paired with a user and a device.
    • Click Reregister to associate the application with a new device and user pairing. For example, reregister the application connection if someone loses their device. By reregistering the application connection, the user then receives the same applications and workflows as the previous device.
  4. In the Register Application Connection or the Reregister Application Connection dialog.
    1. For new device registration only, type the name of the user that will activate and register the device. For reregistrations or clones, the same name is used and cannot be changed.
    2. Select the name of the template for initial application connection registration. The template you use supplies initial values in the subsequent fields.
      • Default – a default template that you can use as is, or customize.
      • HWC – a default template for mobile workflows (containers). Use as is, or customize. If you use the HWC template, Application ID must be set to HWC.
      • Custom - customized templates are listed.
  5. Change the default field values for the template you have chosen. If you are using the default template, you must provide the server name.
    If you are using Relay Server, ensure the correct values are used.
    • Server name- the DNS name or IP address of the primary Unwired Server, such as "myserver.mycompany.com". If using Relay Server, the server name is the IP address or fully qualified name of the Relay Server host.
    • Port- the port used for messaging connections between the device and Unwired Server. If using relay server, this is the Relay Server port. Default: 5001.
    • Farm ID- a string associated with the relay server farm ID. Can contain only letter A-Z (uppercase or lowercase), numbers 0-9, or a combination of both. Default: 0.
    • Application ID- the application ID registered for the application. The value differs according to application client type - native messaging, workflow, or Online Data Proxy client. See Application ID Overview for guidelines.
    • Security Configuration- select the security configuration relevant for the application connection.
    • Domain- select the domain for which you want to register the application connection with.
    • Activation code length - the number of characters in the activation code. If you are reregistering or cloning a device, this value cannot be changed.
    • Activation expiration- the number of hours the activation code is valid.
  6. (Optional) Select the check box adjacent to Specify activation code to enter the code sent to the user in the activation e-mail. This value can contain letter A - Z (uppercase or lowercase), numbers 0 - 9, or a combination of both. Acceptable range: 1 to 10 characters.
