IT policy rules take precedence on smartphones

IT policy rule settings override application control policy rule settings. For example, if you change the Allow Internal Connections IT policy rule to No for BlackBerry smartphones, and if the smartphones have an application control policy set that allows a specific application to make internal connections, the application cannot make internal connections.

The smartphone revokes an application control policy and resets if the permissions of the application it is applied to become more restrictive. Smartphones permit users to make application permissions more restrictive, but not less restrictive, than the permissions that you specify.

Application control policies for unlisted applications

When you create a software configuration and assign it to user accounts so that you can send BlackBerry Device Software, BlackBerry Java Applications, and standard application settings to BlackBerry devices, you must configure whether the software configuration permits users to install and use applications that are not included in the software configuration (also known as unlisted applications). When you configure whether unlisted applications are permitted and optional or not permitted on BlackBerry devices, you must assign an application control policy for unlisted applications to the software configuration.

An application control policy for unlisted applications determines what unlisted applications are permitted on BlackBerry devices and what data the unlisted applications can access on BlackBerry devices. The BlackBerry Administration Service has two standard application control policies for unlisted applications: one for unlisted applications that are optional, and one for unlisted applications that are not permitted. You can change the default settings of the standard application control policy for unlisted applications that are optional, or you can create custom application control policies for unlisted applications that are optional.

For more information about the rule settings in application control policies for unlisted applications, see the BlackBerry Enterprise Server Policy Reference Guide.
