Installing Forcepoint Security Manager and Forcepoint DLP

Steps

  1. In the menu of instance, click Connect and set the windows password. Next, download the RDP file and then connect via RDP to the instance.
  2. Install .NET 3.5, Telnet Client and other needed software on the server that will run the Forcepoint Security Manager.
  3. Copy to the server, where FSM will be located, the installation file. This can be done through any available cloud storage (Google Cloud Storage, AWS S3, OneDrive, Dropbox, SharePoint etc.).
  4. Run installation file on FSM machine according to standard Forcepoint procedure. Reboot the machine if needed, apply the subscription provided by Forcepoint, then click Deploy.
  5. If you want to have the Endpoint Server on Forcepoint Security Manager, you need to assign a static External IP for this machine. After getting the External IP, you must add it to properties of the Endpoint Server: DLP manager > Deployment > System Modules > Forcepoint DLP Server > Endpoint Server > FDQN, and then enter the External IP. However, if you want the main FSM DLP server to be the primary Endpoint Server, then you do not need to do anything else on this machine.
