In JAVA 7U51, there is an option to allow self-signed applications by adding the RMM address to the Exception
Site List in the JAVA control panel. This will allow customer to continue to use the RMM until the new code update
is released.
For Windows,

• Click the Security tab and select the Edit Site List button
• Enter you RMM address into the Exception Site List and Click OK
