What’s the difference between linking and the Linking Service?

Problem description

What's the difference between linking and enabling Websense Linking Service?

Resolution

In Websense Web Security Gateway Anywhere, "linking" is the act of connecting the TRITON - Web Security machine with the Data Security Management Server. You can configure linking in either user interface by providing the IP address of the other manager machine. (See TRITON - Web Security or TRITON - Data Security Help for information.) "Websense Linking Service" is a software component installed with Websense Web Security.

Linking automatically gives data security software access to Websense Linking Service. This:

Provides access to user and group information gathered by User Service, extending IP address to user name resolution into the Data Security module for DLP Web incidents. This enables TRITON - Data Security to display user names in incident reports rather than IP addresses.
