If you are installing the BlackBerry Administration Service, verify that the computers that host the BlackBerry Administration Service and BlackBerry Configuration Database are not separated by a WAN bridge.

If you are performing the installation on a computer that has more than one NIC, verify that the production NIC is first in the bind order in the Windows network settings.

Install the BlackBerry Enterprise Server software

Note: To manage the BlackBerry Enterprise Server, you must install the BlackBerry Administration Service. You can install the BlackBerry Administration Service on the computer that hosts the BlackBerry Enterprise Server or on a separate computer.
