Configuring Afaria Server

After you have set up OTA Deployment Center and configured either an SMS or SMTP gateway, configure Afaria Server.

  1. Open Afaria Administrator and configure Afaria Server to use the OTA Deployment Center and SMS gateway:
    • Server Configuration > Properties > OTA Deployment Center to configure settings for this component. If you are using a relay server, ensure that you configure values used by this Unwired Platform component correctly.

      See Afaria Reference Manual | Platform > Server Configuration > Properties > OTA Deployment.

    • Server Configuration > Properties > SMS Gateway to enable the SMS channel, which is a required communication path for the OTA Deployment Center.

      See Afaria Reference Manual | Platform > Server Configuration > Properties > SMS Gateway and Afaria Reference Manual | Platform > Server Configuration > Properties > Addresses and routing for Afaria messages.

  2. (Optional) Configure an SMTP gateway to send SMS messages over an e-mail infrastructure, which may be used for e-mail-enabled messaging devices.
    See Afaria Reference Manual | Platform > Server Configuration > Properties > SMTP.
  3. Restart Afaria Server to implement these server configuration changes.
