This is a quick blog post to help anyone who is setting up and configuring Cisco UCS Platform Emulator for the first time and is staring blankly at a screen wondering why they have no ability to launch UCS Manager.
Problem Statement
Connecting to the VIP Address of the Cisco UCS Platform Emulator, you are unable to launch UCS Manager.
Solution
Cisco UCS Platform Emulator works under the premise of secure and un-secure context and therefore is blocked by FireFox.
Select the ‘shield icon’ in FireFox
Click Options
Select ‘Disable Protection Now’
Refresh and you can now Launch Cisco UCS Manager
