Messaging devices contain applications that send and receive data through messaging. An administrator must configure the device activation template properties for message-based synchronization (MBS) devices. Device activation requires user registration. Upon successful registration, the device is activated and set up with the template the administrator has selected.
Device registration pairs a user and a device once the user supplies the correct activation code. This information is stored in the messaging database, which contains extensive information about users and their corresponding mobile devices.
Users who are registered but who have not yet installed the software are listed in the window as registered, and their e-mail messages and PIM items are queued by Unwired Server for later delivery. Typically, device registration occurs when the user initially attempts to connect to Unwired Server. However, an administrator can force a user to reregister if there is data corruption on the device, or if the user is assigned a new device. This reestablishes the relationship between the user and the device, and refreshes the entire data set on the device
Device registration requires user registration from the physical device.
