Disabling the Whitelist Feature in Firefox
Firefox has a "whitelist" security feature that requires user permission to
install plugins for each distinct site that hosts a plugin. If enabled, the
whitelist feature requires you to install a Virtual Console viewer for each
iDRAC6 you visit, even though the viewer versions are identical.
To disable the whitelist feature and avoid unnecessary plugin installations,
perform the following steps:
1
Open a Firefox Web browser window.
2
In the address field, enter
about:config
and press <Enter>.
3
In the
Preference Name
column, locate and double-click
xpinstall.whitelist.required
.
The values for
Preference Name
,
Status
,
Ty p e
, and
Va lu e
change to
bold text. The
Status
value changes to
user set
and the
Va lu e
value
changes to
false
.
4
In the
Preferences
Name
column, locate
xpinstall.enabled
.
Ensure that
Val ue
is
true
. If not, double-click
xpinstall.enabled
to set
Val ue
to
true
.
