Netsweeper is happy to announce the initial release of the Netsweeper WAgent for Chrome. This initial release includes support for a majority of the features of the Workstation Agent, and allows customers using Chrome to have the same Workstation Agent functionality.
The following limitations currently exist for the Chrome Workstation Agent, otherwise all features and functionality are present.
Dual Stack support for both IPv4 and IPv6 at the same time
Group Lookup functionality using the -s group_prefix setting
The -p proxy setting is not supported, and browser proxy settings are used if set
The -v system tray feature is always on, however messaging is limited without -v specified
