Host Checker Installation Options

Host Checker is supported for agent and agentless clients. The installation options are listed below:

Browser based Host Checking (Agentless) — This is used for browser-based logins and requires PSAL to be present on the endpoint. If PSAL is not available on the endpoint, it gets installed as part of the connection.
It is recommended not to keep a very low value for login inactivity timeout (For example,1 or 2 minutes). This might result in connection timeouts on fresh endpoints where PSAL also need to be installed as part of compliance evaluation.
Ivanti Secure Access Client (Agent)—You can use Ivanti Secure Access Client, which contains the Host Checker component for compliance check. To manually install the Host Checker, Select Maintenance > System > Installers and download the Pulse installer.

Using the downloaded executable file, you can:

Distribute the file to client machines using software distribution tools. This option enables you to install an application or service on client machines.
Post the executable in a secure repository so that users with the proper administrator right may download and install the appropriate version.

To automatically upgrade Host Checker:

Select Authentication > Endpoint Security > Host Checker.
Under Options, select Auto-upgrade Host Checker if you want the system to automatically download the Host Checker application to a client computer when the version of Host Checker on the system is newer than the version installed on the client.
Click Save Changes.
