Test Card has been added to the Trusted Sites list but does not appear to run in the Trusted Sites Zone.

If you have added the required sites to the Trusted Sites list, but still the Test Card and other RITS web pages do not report or appear to be running in the Trusted Sites Zone, try:

  1. Close the browser.
  2. Delete all of the sites in the Trusted Sites list.
  3. Close then reopen the Internet Options window.
  4. Add the sites back to the Trusted Sites list.
  5. Reopen the browser.

If you are trying unsuccessfully to run the Test Card via the ASX Net network, if you are able, you could also try to run the Test Card via the internet at https://www.rba.gov.au/rits/testcard.

Running the Test Card via the Internet?

If you are accessing the RITS Test Card via the Internet (https://www.rba.gov.au/rits/testcard), as opposed to via the ASX Net network, you will need to uncheck the setting 'Require server verification (https:) for all sites in this zone' and add https://*.rba.gov.au (or https://www.rba.gov.au) to the Trusted Sites list.

    What if one or more of the settings are greyed out?

    If one or more of your settings are greyed out and you are not able to change it, then it is likely that a group policy setting is overriding your local user setting preferences. You must ask your machine administrator to change the required setting for you.

    Note: The setting shown in the Trusted Sites Zone dialog is your local user setting. The RITS Test Card and any sites in your Trusted Sites list will read and use the group policy setting which may be different.

    If the user holds administrative privileges to change the internet option settings, then try toggling the setting from Disabled to Enabled. Then click OK. Click YES when prompted with the question: Are you sure you want to change the settings for this zone?
