This section of the Deployment and Installation Center provides information specific to integrating Websense Web Security solutions with Microsoft® Forefront™ Threat Management Gateway (TMG).
Refer to Installation Instructions: Web Security or Web Filter as your primary source of installation instructions. Only additional or alternate steps required to enable TMG integration are provided here.
An integration with TMG affects the following Websense components:
*
Websense ISAPI Filter plug-in: This additional Websense component is installed on the machine running TMG. The ISAPI Filter plug-in configures TMG to communicate with Websense Filtering Service.
*
Websense Filtering Service: Interacts with TMG and Websense Network Agent to filter Internet requests. Filtering Service either permits the Internet request or sends an appropriate block message to the user.
After the Filtering Service is installed, the ISAPI Filter plug-in must be installed on every TMG machine in your network.
*
Websense Network Agent: Manages Internet protocols that are not handled by TMG. Network Agent also enables bandwidth-based filtering.
If your environment includes an array of TMG machines, install Websense Web Security components on a machine outside the array.
When TMG receives an Internet request from a user, it passes the request to Websense Filtering Service, which determines the category assigned to the URL and checks the policy assigned to the client.
