Client Network Agent

These settings configure Client Network Agent (or 'network agent') behavior on endpoint computers. They determine how the network agent handles network activity in specific applications or browsers.

You can edit these settings to exempt specific applications or browsers from policy control. For example, you can exempt Microsoft Word when it is used to check in or check out documents from a SharePoint site.

Note: By default, the network agent is configured to monitor web activity for most common browsers and Microsoft Office applications, including Microsoft Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Opera, and Google Chrome.
