Upgrading from a newer Forcepoint Endpoint Context Agent (Forcepoint F1E v19.04 or later)

Starting in Forcepoint F1E v19.04, Forcepoint ECA could be installed and deployed as part of Forcepoint F1E. If you are upgrading from v19.04 or later, you do not need to uninstall the earlier Forcepoint ECA installed on the endpoint machine.

Steps

  1. Make sure you have Forcepoint NGFW v6.7.0 or later installed and functioning.
  2. Download the latest package builder from the Forcepoint Support site:
    1. Log on to the Forcepoint Downloads page.
    2. Go to Endpoint Security > Forcepoint One Endpoint, select a version, and then download the package builder.
  3. Run WebsenseEndpointPackageBuilder.exe to generate a new Forcepoint ECA installation package. You must provide the local folder location for your configuration file in the package builder on the Profile Path screen.
  4. Deploy the v21.09 installation package to each endpoint machine using one of the methods described in the Installation and Deployment Guide for Forcepoint F1E.
