Solution
When you click "More Information" and then
"View Certificate Details", It is using MD2 with RSA as signature
algorithm.
MD2 is disabled in java by default also a RSA key with less then 1024bits. Because
these are no longer considered as secure and therefore java reject such
certificates.
You can disable this check, because you have start the applet to access your FC
Switch.
Locate the file java.security in the lib/security folder
of your java installation and comment the following:
# jdk.certpath.disabledAlgorithms=MD2, RSA keySize < 1024
The applet should start now but for security reasons it is recommended to
reverse this change if it is no longer needed.
