Adding modules to the deployment

If network and security requirements dictate the need to add new agents or other modules, most can be added using the Forcepoint Security Installer (the Windows installer).

During installation, the administrator is prompted to provide the FQDN of the management server and the credentials for a Forcepoint Security Manager administrator with Forcepoint DLP system modules permissions. This allows the new module to register automatically with the management server.

After installation, to accept the default configuration, an administrator must click Deploy in the Security Manager to complete the registration process. To customize the configuration before deploying, go to the Settings > Deployment > System Modules page and select the module to edit.

Only a Security Manager administrator with system modules permissions can install or configure new network elements.

For information on adding and configuring modules, see “Adding modules” in the Forcepoint DLP Administrator Help.
