In a production environment for replication-based synchronization (RBS), you must set up both Unwired Server and device clients to use an encrypted port, and manage certificates on both the server and client.
These steps are required to secure communication over the RBS port in an environment where Unwired Server is running in the DMZ or as part of a development environment without a relay server:
Creating Self-Signed Certificates
Use createcert to create a self-signed certificate that encrypts replication-based synchronization (RBS) connections. In a production environment, request the certificate from a trusted certificate authority (CA).
Verifying Device Client HTTPS Setup
Complete the encryption of the replication-based synchronization, by verifying the setup of device clients. Typically, device clients are set up by development teams.
