Configuring Internet Explorer to use HTML5-based plug-in

The HTML5 virtual console and virtual media APIs are created by using HTML5 technology. The following are the advantages of HTML5

technology:

• Installation is not required on the client workstation.

• Compatibility is based on browser and is not based on the operating system or installed components.

• Compatible with most of the desktops and mobile platforms.

• Quick deployment and the client is downloaded as part of a web page.

You must configure Internet Explorer (IE) settings before you launch and run HTML5 based virtual console and virtual media applications.

To configure the browser settings:

1. Disable pop-up blocker. To do this, click Tools > Internet Options > Privacy and clear the Turn on Pop-up Blocker check-box.

2. Start the HTML5 virtual console using any of the following methods:

• In IE, click Tools > Compatibility View Settings and clear the Display intranet sites in Compatibility View check-box.

• In IE using an IPv6 address, modify the IPv6 address as follows:

https://[fe80::d267:e5ff:fef4:2fe9]/ to https://fe80--d267-e5ff-fef4-2fe9.ipv6-

literal.net/

• Direct HTML5 virtual console in IE using an IPv6 address, modify the IPv6 address as follows:

https://[fe80::d267:e5ff:fef4:2fe9]/console to https://fe80--d267-e5ff-fef4-2fe9.ipv6-

literal.net/console

Configuring IE to use ActiveX plug-in

You must configure the IE browser settings before you start and run ActiveX based Virtual Console and Virtual Media applications. The

ActiveX applications are delivered as signed CAB files from the iDRAC server. If the plug-in type is set to Native-ActiveX type in Virtual

console, when you try to start the Virtual Console, the CAB file is downloaded to the client system and ActiveX based Virtual Console is

started. Internet Explorer requires some configurations to download, install, and run these ActiveX based applications.
