Applet and WebStart Deployment
WebStart dashboard deployments require that Java WebStart be installed on the end user's local machine. Applet dashboard deployments require that the Java plug-in be installed on the end user's local machine. Browsers block these dashboards by default due to security concerns. To unblock these dashboards, the recommendation is to re-sign the JAR files with a trusted Certificate Authority key. However, there is another way to unblock WebStart and applet dashboards. On each client machine, you can add a server to the Exception Site List as described below.
To add a server to the Exception Site List
1. Select Control Panel > Java to display the Java Control Panel.
2. Select the Security tab and ensure that the security level is set to High.
3. Click Edit Site List to display the Exception Site List dialog.
4. In the Exception Site List dialog, click Add.
5. In the Location field, enter the dashboard URL. Only the host and port are required. For example:
http://MyHost:8080
6. Click Add and then OK.
7. Repeat these steps on each client machine. When the dashboard is accessed, a security warning dialog box appears. The risk must be accepted each time in order to view the dashboard.
