web console clients bug fix and enhancement for update for RHV 4.0

Type/Severity

Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

Updated web-based console clients packages are available for Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization 4.0

Description

The web-based console clients packages provide web-based client access to virtual machines. These packages include novnc, spice-html5, and python-websockify. The novnc package is a Websocket implementation of a VNC client using HTML5 with encryption support. It provides an in-browser client for VNC console access to virtual machines. The python-websockify package is a Python Web Server Gateway Interface based adapter for the Websockets protocol. It forwards traffic between the client and guest, and enables users to connect to virtual machines using SPICE-HTML5 and noVNC consoles. The spice-html5 package is a Javascript SPICE client. It provides an in-browser client for SPICE console access to virtual machines, and an Apache configuration file which allows it to work with any web server.

All Red Hat Virtualization users who wish to use web-based console clients are advised to install these packages.
