Modifying your Java settings

You need to modify your Java settings for Real-Time Viewer client connections.

The Real-Time Viewer uses Java applet; some versions of Java might not work. Java 1.8.0.x is recommended.

If you are running Java 1.8.0.x, add LogLogic LMI to the Java 8 security exceptions to allow LogLogic LMI to connect. You can use either IPv4 or IPv6 addresses. In the following example, IPv6 addresses have been used.

Note: Appliance IP address can be either IPv4 or IPv6. Both are supported. If you are not sure which one to use, contact your LogLogic LMI administrator.

Procedure

  1. As administrator, update your file C:\Program Files(x86)\Java\jre1.8.0_31\lib\security\java.policy and grant the following permission to non-abbreviated IPv6 address:
    grant { permission java.net.SocketPermission "fd00:0:0:0:0:aaaa:a73:1a3d", "connect,resolve"; };
    • You can also add permissions to both abbreviated and non-abbreviated addresses: grant { permission java.net.SocketPermission "fd00:0:0:0:0:aaaa:a73:1a3d", "connect,resolve"; }; grant { permission java.net.SocketPermission "fd00::aaaa:a73:1a3d", "connect,resolve"; };
    The IP address should be replaced with the IP address of your appliance.
  2. In Control Panel > java > Security add the following to the exception list:
    • https://[fd00::aaaa:a73:1a3d]:443, where "fd00::aaaa:a73:1a3d” is your appliance IP
    • https://[fd00:0:0:0:0:aaaa:a73:1a3d]:443, where "fd00:0:0:0:0:aaaa:a73:1a3d” is the non-abbreviated version for your appliance IP
