30 DRAC 5 Overview
Disabling the Whitelist Feature in Mozilla Firefox
Firefox includes a "whitelist" feature that provides additional security. When
the whitelist feature is enabled, the browser requires user permission to install
plug-ins for each distinct site that hosts the plug-in. This process requires
that you install a plug-in for each distinct RAC IP/DNS name, even though
the plug-in versions are identical.
To disable the whitelist feature and avoid repetitive, unnecessary plugin
installations, perform the following steps:
1
Open a Firefox Web browser window.
2
In the address field, type the following and press <Enter>:
about:config
