Adding iDRAC7 to the List of Trusted Domains

When you access iDRAC7 Web interface, you are prompted to add iDRAC7 IP address to the list of trusted domains if the

IP address is missing from the list. When completed, click Refresh or relaunch the Web browser to establish a

connection to iDRAC7 Web interface.

On some operating systems, Internet Explorer (IE) 8 may not prompt you to add iDRAC7 IP address to the list of trusted

domains if the IP address is missing from the list.

NOTE: When connecting to the iDRAC7 Web interface with a certificate the browser does not trust, the browser's

certificate error warning may display a second time after you acknowledge the first warning. This is the expected

behavior to for security.

To add iDRAC7 IP address to the list of trusted domains in IE8, do the following:

1. Select Tools → Internet Options → Security → Trusted sites → Sites.

2. Enter iDRAC7 IP address to the Add this website to the zone.

3. Click Add, click OK, and then click Close.

4. Click OK and then refresh your browser.

Disabling Whitelist Feature in Firefox

Firefox has a "whitelist" security feature that requires user permission to install plug-ins for each distinct site that hosts a

plug-in. If enabled, the whitelist feature requires you to install a Virtual Console viewer for each iDRAC7 you visit, even

though the viewer versions are identical.

To disable the whitelist feature and avoid unnecessary plug-in 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, Type, and Value change to bold text. The Status value changes to user set

and the Value changes to false.

4. In the Preferences Name column, locate xpinstall.enabled.

Make sure that Value is true. If not, double-click xpinstall.enabled to set Value to true.
