Web Browser Auto Login Discover

Web Browser Auto Login Discover

avatar

I am attempting to add my VMware vCenter server URL as a web browser link in RDM.

I've entered the URL (https://vcenter.domain.com:9443/vsphere-client/#) in RDM, gave it a name and went to the LOGIN tab. I then clicked DISCOVER, and got the error below.



I've been trying to get this resolved myself and haven't been successful. Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance!

It seems to be a Flash web page and the only solution is to use the typing macro but even that it might fails.
