Forcepoint recommends to install the agent using Jamf installation method.
While deploying the agent configuration profile using Jamf, you can automatically obtain the necessary permissions and accessibility to the agent that avoids complicated administrator
or user confirmation dialogs. To install the agent using Jamf, do the following:
Steps
-
Create the endpoint package.
-
From the mac packages, copy FORCEPOINT-ONEENDPOINT-Mac.zip to the endpoint machine, then double-click the file to unzip the installation package.
macOS automatically creates a directory named
EndpointInstaller, which contains a file called
WebsenseEndpoint.pkg and the
generate_root_ca tool.
Note: You may need to modify the generate_root_ca permissions so you can double click the
generate_root_ca as an executable file. To do this, open the folder where the generate_root_ca is located and run chmod
777 generate_root_ca in the terminal.
-
To run the generate_root_ca tool, open the folder where the generate_root_ca is located and run generate_root_ca in
the terminal.
The
_ca.cer certificate and the
fpnpd.dat file generates in the installer folder.
Note: With _ca.cer being
deployed by Jamf, the fpnpd.dat file must be included in the installer before publishing the package in Jamf.
-
Deploy the following through Jamf:
- The _ca.cer certificate.
- Privacy Preferences Policy Control (pppc) profile (for enabling FDA & fpneone process).
- Content filter configuration.
- Outlook add-in.
- Chrome extension.
- Firefox extension. This is built-in to the installer package for deployment.
-
Deploy the endpoint package through Jamf.
