Managing EasyConnect services
EasyConnect is a service that allows you to connect on-premises Forcepoint NGFW edge devices to the cloud service. EasyConnect services can be applied to multiple Forcepoint NGFW devices connecting to the service with the same default policy. One of four provided authentication keys is used to authenticate an NGFW device with an EasyConnect service.
The following elements are displayed in the table when All Services is selected in the left select pane of the Device Management table.
