This guide assumes you have already cloned the repository into your home directory.

### Download and install the latest java version 8

```
https://java.com/en/download/manual.jsp
```

### Go to the security directory where you installed java, xyz is your current version

```
C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.8.0_xyz\lib\security\
```

### Open the file **java.security** and comment out the line below

```
# jdk.tls.disabledAlgorithms=SSLv3, RC4, MD5withRSA, DH keySize < 1024,
```

For added security: Add the IP address of your iDRAC interface (https://w.x.y.z) to the security tab of the java control pannel **located under Control Panel**, then uncheck the box "Enable Java content for browser and Web Start applications" to prevent java from accessing unsecure internet resources.

Run the connect_idrac_kvm.sh script and enter the IP address and credentials of your iDRAC interface to connect to the network KVM on your Dell Server
