Installation
Browsermon Install
Browsermon Enterprise Version runs in a client-server model, where Browsermon Controller(s) run on all enterprise endpoints for local browser history log collection. Whereas a central Browsermon Watchdog server is installed to perform health checking and distributed management of all Browsermon controllers installed endpoints.
Important: For optimal continuity, maintain the same logdir
path as used in previous versions. This ensures the new version will resume log processing from the last recorded position.
