Requirements for Java Plug-In Availability
The Web Manager launches Java applets in the following situations:
The Java applets rely on the Java plug-in being installed on the computer and registered with the browser being used.
Installing Java 2 Runtime Environment (J2RE) software, Standard Edition, automatically installs the needed Java plug-in. After you download and install the JRE software, you then must make sure the Java plug-in is registered with the browser. The following table provides links to the related procedures.
Note: The Java Runtime Environment is also called Java 2 Platform, Standard Edition (J2SE) at the java.sun.com website, and in the IE browser, it is called Java 2.
