HP Systems Insight Manager 7.3 Installation and Configuration Guide for Linux

4. Click OK.
NOTE: By using IP addresses instead of names, you might encounter security
alerts, if the name in the managed system certificate does not match the name in
the link. The default certificate for managed systems uses the system name, not the
IP address.
Reason 2: For managed systems, the privacy policy setting in Internet Explorer 6.0 is
blocking the authentication cookies from the managed systems.
Solution 2A: (Recommended) Remove the systems from the Internet Zone. The privacy
policy only affects systems in the browser Internet Zone. Therefore, by removing systems
from that zone, you prevent the privacy policy from affecting those systems. To change
the browser privacy policy setting, select Tools→Internet Options, and click the Privacy
tab from the Internet Explorer browser menu. Modify the privacy setting in one of the
following ways:
• Browsing to systems by IP address instead of by name can cause the browser to
consider those systems to be in the Internet Zone. Instead, browse by name. You
can configure HP SIM to use system names when creating links to systems by
selecting Options→Security→System Link Configuration and selecting Use the
system name.
• If your browser is configured to use a proxy server, you can configure your browser
to bypass the proxy server for specific systems, which removes those systems from
the browser Internet Zone. From the browser menu, select Tools→Internet Options,
and click the Connections tab. Click LAN Settings, and if you are configured to use
a proxy server, click Advanced. In the Exceptions list, you can specify a list of
addresses that should bypass the proxy server. These addresses are no longer in
the Internet Zone and are not affected by the privacy settings policy.
Solution 2B: (Not Recommended) Change the browser privacy security policy setting.
From the Internet Explorer browser menu, select Tools→Internet Options, and click the
Privacy tab. The privacy setting can be modified in one of the following ways:
• Set the privacy setting to Accept all Cookies by sliding the slider bar to the bottom.
This setting allows a browser to accept all cookies for both first-party and third-party
sites. When browsing to HP SIM or directly to a managed system, it is considered
a first-party site. When navigating to a managed system through HP SIM, the system
is considered a third-party site.
• Customize the handling of cookies by clicking Advanced and enabling Override
automatic cookie handling. Then select the appropriate radio buttons for first-party
and third-party cookies to Accept or Prompt. If you select Prompt, the browser
prompts you on how to handle a cookie each time a cookie is received. You can
choose to block or allow the cookie each time, or for all times. Enabling Always
allow session cookies does not resolve the problem because the Web Agents do
not use session cookies.
• Individually specify the handling of cookies for each system. Click Edit in the
websites section and add the address of the system in the specified field. Click
Allow to always allow cookies to that system. Repeat this for all systems.
