Setup Java Web Start

Install icedtea-web or the official JDK from oracle. Because the iDRAC uses RC4 for SSL/TLS, you will get an error "The viewer has terminated. Reason: The network connection has dropped." if you try to connect. To work around this, you will need to edit /usr/java/jdk1.8.0_202-amd64/jre/lib/security/java.security (change the java version as required) and edit jdk.tls.disabledAlgorithms to not include RC4. Save the file and try launching the java web start applet again. 

644 #jdk.tls.disabledAlgorithms=SSLv3, RC4, DES, MD5withRSA, DH keySize < 1024, \
645 #    EC keySize < 224, 3DES_EDE_CBC, anon, NULL
646 jdk.tls.disabledAlgorithms=SSLv3, DES, MD5withRSA, DH keySize < 1024, \
647     EC keySize < 224, 3DES_EDE_CBC, anon, NULL
