Title: Dlink switches java applet
Post by: hessam2013 on April 20, 2018, 11:35:43 PM
Hi,
I have handfull of DGS-3120-24tc switches, i configure them from WebUI and every thing is ok, but when in I need to (For debug purpose) view
port utilization sector, the problem starts,
I am completely aware that NPAPI and thus java applets are not supported by modern browsers, one option is using old browser, and i've seen for cameras
dlink has provided a new application, but what is the option for switches?
1-One may not be able to use deprecated browsers(This is the case)
2-I assume that DLik must provide a new firmware with java dependency removed
Any info on this
Regards,
Hessam

Thanks alot, FurryNutz
That seems like a cure for a short time, I will use that and thanks for pointing out ;)
but problem still remains unsolved (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1184304 (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1184304))
as it is stated at provided link, FF ESR will soon drop support fir NPAPI Java,
I hope sooner or later DLink provide us a new firmware without need for Java

Hessam

I would contact D-Link support and ask them about this and the the future holds for the DGS series.
Also give IE11 a try as well.

I presume the D-Link will have to do something. Keep compatible browsers on hand for now.
Let us know if you find out anything.

Good Luck.
