8 Verifying the Mobile Synchronization Gateway Installation

This chapter describes how to verify that Oracle Communications Mobile Synchronization Gateway is installed correctly.

Verifying the Mobile Synchronization Gateway Installation

To verify the Mobile Synchronization Gateway installation, you configure a mobile device to connect to Mobile Synchronization Gateway. Mobile devices have their own native applications for configuring Microsoft® Exchange ActiveSync. For example, on an iOS mobile device such as the iPhone, you add a Microsoft® Exchange ActiveSync email account through the Settings app. Refer to each specific mobile device's documentation for more information.

Before configuring a device to connect to Mobile Synchronization Gateway, ensure that the you have provisioned users in Directory Server as described in "Preparing Directory Server".

You will need the following information about your Mobile Synchronization Gateway deployment (assumes that Autodiscover is configured):

  • User identifier (email address or uid@domain) and password

  • If SSL is used (Autodiscover assumes that SSL/TLS is enabled.)

Next Steps

Before using Mobile Synchronization Gateway, it is important to also implement system security. For security-related tasks, such as configuring SSL, see Mobile Synchronization Gateway Security Guide.
