Web Browsers

HomeWeb browser support is relevant when endpoint users interact with the Forescout web server. This occurs when:

  • Users download SecureConnector following redirection to the captive portal.
  • Using HTTP notification actions to present messages or warnings to users in their web browsers.
  • Corporate or guest users sign in via a captive portal web page.
  • Managing guest accounts using the Sponsor Portal.

The following web browsers are supported by the Forescout platform:

  • Internet Explorer 10.x, 11.x and Microsoft Edge
  • Apple Safari 9.0 and above on Mac OS; Safari 8.3 and above on iOS
  • Google Chrome 46 and above
  • Mozilla Firefox 43.0 and above
  • Android browser 1.5 and above   (This product is EOL by vendor)

The browser list above is non-exhaustive. Most Forescout web portals work on HTML4 compatible web browsers and are not necessarily limited to the browsers listed above. This includes old browsers that may no longer be supported by the vendors.

Note that this information does not address administrator portals such as the Assets Portal and Reports Portal. However, these portals will also work using the same web browsers listed above.
