Hi there,

 

The integration is straight forward and does not require a lot of time to implement it using the templates and the video attached to this post.

The deployment guide attached to the post contains detailed step-by-step instruction how to do it.

 

If you have any questions don't hesistate to ask.

 

BR,

Vadim

    The deployment guide was updated.

    Mainly there were some typos.

  • Is this integration still being maintained?

  • As far as I know.  This is not being maintained.  I integrated Forescout with Infoblox in April 2023 and ended up with an Infoblox Tech Support case open for a month.  In the end, I determined on my own before support could figure the issue out, that the documentaion was missing a critical step.

     

    The step that was missing in the documentation was to add the Extensible Attributes to either a individual DHCP Subnet or to the default network view under Administration/Network Views/ default

     

    What led me to discover the missing step in the documentation was watching a Youtube video: y o u t u b e .c o m /watch?v=pnnm17F-D-A&t=1s  titled "Infoblox DDi integration with ForeScout CounterACT"  at the 3:50 mark in the video, it shows the need to add the EA's to the network view.  Hope this helps.

     

  • Do you have any updated documentation on this Forescout integration? We are using 8.5.1 and this version looks much different then on the one in the video.
