Select Policy Broker Screen

Applies to:
  • Forcepoint Web Security, v8.5.x
  • Forcepoint URL Filtering, v8.5.x

This screen appears if Policy Server is selected for installation, but Policy Broker is not.

Policy Server can be connected to a primary, standalone, or replica Policy Broker.

A list of Policy Broker instances to which this Policy Server can be connected is provided. The list is based on the Policy Broker IP address entered on the Policy Broker Connection screen.

  • Select the Policy Broker instance that the Policy Server being installed should connect to.
  • The primary or standalone Policy Broker is selected by default.

If Policy Broker is not installed anywhere in your network, you must install it before any other web protection component.

  • To install Policy Broker on this machine, click Previous, then add Policy Broker to the components selected for installation.
  • To install Policy Broker on another machine, run the Forcepoint Security Setup program or Web Linux Installer on that machine first, before continuing to attempt installation on the current machine.

    After installing on the remote machine, click Previous and re-enter the Policy Broker IP address on the Policy Broker Connection screen to reset the list of Policy Broker instances.
