Deploying Browsium Client

To get the most out of Ion, you’ll want to install Browsium Client on every licensed PC in your enterprise. This is easy to do using Browsium-ClientSetup.exe and some careful planning.

Ion seat licenses are required for each PC, so check your Browsium license agreement before deploying. Unlicensed users will be unable to obtain a seat reservation from the Browsium Client Management System.

It is assumed that the reader of this guide is familiar with enterprise deployment of client software and has available tools to perform a scaled deployment. Section 2.6 of this guide details the command line switches available when installing Browsium Client in an enterprise environment. These options range from silent installation with no installation user interface visible to end users to pre-configuring the Ion license key in the client registry.

Installing Browsium Client

To deploy Browsium-ClientSetup.exe with an Ion license key, there are two simple steps:

1. Retrieve a copy of Browsium-ClientSetup.exe from the Browsium Ion zip file you received from Browsium.

2. Find your 28-character Ion license key provided to you by Browsium to include in your installation command line script as the value for ION_PRODUCT_KEY.

The following example will install Browsium-ClientSetup.exe with an Ion license key in Quiet Mode with No User Interface. Launch the Command Prompt as Administrator, enter the path to Browsium-ClientSetup.exe (located in C:\Browsium for this example), add the /qn switch, and substitute your Ion license key provided by Browsium for the hash marks (#).
