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.

Viewing Localized Versions of Web Interface

iDRAC7 Web interface is supported in the following languages:
English (en-us)
French (fr)
German (de)
Spanish (es)
Japanese (ja)
Simplified Chinese (zh-cn)
The ISO identifiers in parentheses denote the supported language variants. For some supported languages, resizing the
browser window to 1024 pixels wide is required to view all features.
iDRAC7 Web interface is designed to work with localized keyboards for the supported language variants. Some features
of iDRAC7 Web interface, such as Virtual Console, may require additional steps to access certain functions or letters.
Other keyboards are not supported and may cause unexpected problems.
NOTE: See the browser documentation on how to configure or setup different languages and view localized
versions of iDRAC7 Web interface.
