Policy_Server


The port Policy Server uses to communicate with other Websense components (default is 55806)

When Policy Server is installed, if the installation program finds the default port to be in use, it is automatically incremented until a free port is found. To determine what port is used by Policy Server, check the websense.ini file—located in C:\Program Files\Websense\bin (Windows) or
/opt/Websense/bin (Linux)—on the Policy Server machine. In this file, look for thePolicyServerPort value.


 Policy Server identifies and tracks the location and status of other Websense Web
security components in a deployment. It also:
a. Logs event messages for Websense components.
b. Stores configuration information specific to a single Policy Server instance.
c. Communicates configuration data to Filtering Service for use in filtering
Internet requests.
d. Policy and most configuration settings are shared between Policy Servers that
share a Policy Database.
