Hi @Arunkumarbnp ,
If you are asking about synthetic monitors then the Synthetic engines are responsible for the executions, and internally, they use Chromium. The Beacon Forwarder then sends the results to the cluster.

@Akhil-Jayendran thanks for your reply
I've created browser monitoring in dynatrace, I've to create fw request for internet and intranet applications.
I need to know if it is http or https and ports used for the firewall implementation

Hello @Arunkumarbnp ,
The HTTP port is 80, and the HTTPS port is 443.
Reference: List of TCP and UDP port numbers
For intranet monitoring, you need to apply firewall rules to allow traffic on the above ports from the
Synthetic Private location (ActiveGate) to your application server.
For internet monitoring, you can use Dynatrace Public locations — it should work without requiring any firewall rules.
