Solution

The Device Hub Manager has been rebuilt to allow for an independent installation, which will work with any Firefox version and in particular the latest. This change provides a much simpler and secure deployment of Firefox and ensures that you can easily keep up with the latest version of Firefox, e.g., with automatic updates.

Getting started

Make sure you have installed the latest version of Firefox before installing the new Device Manager Hub.

Installing the Device Hub Manager

  1. Download the Device Hub Manager installer from the specified location to your local computer.
    Do not install directly from network!

  2. Run the installer from your local computer with administrative rights.

  3. Confirm the Microsoft UAC prompt when it appears to start the installation.
    The installer will create a folder at the following location C:\Program Files\DeviceHubManager

  4. After the installation, Windows may in some cases require a computer restart.

Testing the Device Hub Manager

Here are items you can check to validate that the Device Hub Manager is running correctly.

  • A purple SECUTIX icon should be displayed in the system tray. If it does not appear, you can manually start it from the installation folder (C:\Program Files\DeviceHubManager), by using the desktop shortcut or from the program list.
  • A new SECUTIX certificate should be listed

Test

  • After installation, the application should start automatically.
    • If the application does not start automatically, you can manually start it from the installation folder: C:\Program Files\DeviceHubManager.
    • Or use the shortcut on your desktop or in the program list.


  • Verify that the new solution is running by checking for the purple SECUTIX icon in the system tray.


  • A certificate has been added to Firefox:


  • Access the URL http://127.0.0.1:8558 to detect the workstation name. Please ensure that the protocol is http:// and the port number is 8558.  


Notes

  • The new version will automatically start with windows staring. 
  • When the new version is running:
    • Using standard Firefox will connect to the new solution.
    • Using Firefox Kit will also connect to the new solution.


Advise

  • Both versions of Firefox—standard Firefox and Firefox from the Kit—should be available to the customer. The Firefox Kit is to be used only in emergencies.

  • Ensure that the standard Firefox icon is visible on the desktop and taskbar.

  • The Firefox Kit icon should not be visible, but guidelines for accessing it should be provided.

Emergency Rollback

If a critical issue arises and you need to revert to the old solution:

  1. Stop the new solution by right-clicking the purple SECUTIX icon in the system tray and selecting "Exit Application".
  2. Start the old solution by launching the Firefox Kit.
