Web Security Gateway Anywhere, v7.7.x
In Websense Web Security Gateway Anywhere deployments, Directory Agent collects user and group information from a configured directory service for use in filtering by the hybrid service.
In a Websense appliance-based deployment, Directory Agent is installed (but not enabled, by default) on full policy source and user directory and filtering appliances. Use the Appliance Manager Command-Line Utility to enable the Directory Agent service on an appliance.
Typically, only one instance of Directory Agent is required in an entire deployment.
Special considerations
When installing Directory Agent, Policy Server must already be installed on the same machine or a networked machine.
While typically only one instance of Directory Agent should be operating in a deployment, it is possible to install multiple Directory Agent instances. Specific configuration is necessary for multiple Directory Agent instances to operate properly. For more information, see the TRITON - Web Security Help.
