BlackBerry Dispatcher Layer

The BlackBerry Dispatcher is designed to compress and encrypt all information sent to the BlackBerry device. The BlackBerry Dispatcher is also designed to decompress and decrypt all information that users send from the BlackBerry device, and to send that information to other BlackBerry services and components. The BlackBerry Dispatcher sends the data through the BlackBerry Router, to and from the wireless network.

Using the tests mapped to this layer, administrators can achieve the following:

1. Understand the load on the Dispatcher;
2. Detect the non-availability of a connection with the Dispatcher;
3. Be proactively alerted to a potential delay in the Dispatcher's responsiveness to requests from devices;
4. License usage of the Dispatcher
