If password encryption is required between Internet Explorer Client and the Web Server, HTTPS must be utilized. Refer to the Configure Load Balancer in Oracle Argus Safety Web.

When logged into Oracle Argus Safety, having multiple internet browsers open may cause the user to receive a login screen when opening certain parts of the application such as opening E2B Report dialog box. It is recommended to close all other non-Oracle Argus Safety Sessions if this problem occurs on an end user machine.

Certain requirements within the Oracle Argus Safety System open file attachments within a separate internet browser window however based on client machine settings this may not occur. Each application is configured differently as to how it handles files within Internet Explorer. Refer to the application documentation to correctly configure it.

It is not recommended to utilize the IP Address of the Web Server from the client machines within Internet Explorer. Using the IP Address forces Internet Explorer to use a high security mode which may restrict certain functionality from Argus to run.
