F5 VPN client + Endpoint Inspection

This might be confusing because there are two different ways that the endpoint inspector can fire, depending on if the users are connecting with Edge Client or not.

If you're using Edge Client to start the VPN, it has special functions that recognize and start up the EPS process by calling the library directly.

If you're using a browser to start the VPN, the endpoint-inspection javascript code delivered to the browser tries to call a special URL scheme "f5-epi://" that should be registered to the EPI app. This is similar to how Zoom works to launch the Zoom thick app from a browser.

To get that endpoint inspector installed and registered as a URL scheme, choose these options when you create the Edge Client package from the big-ip GUI:

The inspector ones that should install that are "Endpoint Security", "Inspector Service", and "Web Browser Add-ons for BIG-IP Edge Client".
