Configuring eDirectory Agent settings

Use the Settings > General > User Identification page in the Web Security module of the Forcepoint Security Manager to review and edit eDirectory Agent configuration information.

1. Use the Transparent Identification Agents table to select the IP address or hostname of the eDirectory Agent instance that you want to configure.
   If you have installed a new eDirectory Agent instance that does not appear in the list, click Add Agent, then select eDirectory Agent from the drop-down list.
2. Under Basic Agent Configuration, enter or verify the IPv4 address or hostname of the eDirectory Agent machine.
   Note:

   Hostnames must start with an alphabetical character (a-z), not a numeric or special character.

   Hostnames containing certain extended ASCII characters may not resolve properly. To avoid this issue, enter an IP address instead of a host name.

3. Enter the Port that eDirectory Agent should use to communicate with other web protection components. (30700, by default).
4. To establish an authenticated connection between Filtering Service and eDirectory Agent, select Enable authentication, and then enter a Password for the connection.
