Question Answer
What is the slowest
connection (lowest
bandwidth) over which
Dominion KX II can
operate?
33Kbps or above is recommended for acceptable KX performance over
a modem connection.
What is the speed of
Dominion KX II's
Ethernet interfaces?
Dominion KX II supports Gigabit as well as 10/100 Ethernet. KX II
supports two 10/100/1000 speed Ethernet interfaces, with configurable
speed and duplex settings (either auto-detected or manually set).
Can I access Dominion
KX II over a wireless
connection?
Yes. Dominion KX II not only uses standard Ethernet, but also very
conservative bandwidth with very high quality video. Thus, if a
wireless client has network connectivity to a Dominion KX II, servers
can be configured and managed at BIOS-level wirelessly.
Can Dominion KX II be
used over the WAN
(Internet), or just over
the corporate LAN?
Whether via a fast corporate LAN, the less predictable WAN (Internet),
cable modem or dial-up modem, Dominion KX II's KVM-over-IP
technology can accommodate the connection.
Can I use Dominion KX
II with a VPN?
Yes. Dominion KX II uses standard Internet Protocol (IP) technologies
from Layer 1 through Layer 4. Traffic can be easily tunneled through
standard VPNs.
How many TCP ports
must be open on my
firewall in order to
enable network access to
Dominion KX II? Are
these ports
configurable?
Only one. Dominion KX II protects network security by only requiring
access to a single TCP port to operate. This port is completely
configurable for additional security.
Note that, of course, to use Dominion KX II's optional Web browser
capability, the standard HTTPS port 443 must also be open.
Does Dominion KX II
require an external
authentication server to
operate?
No. Dominion KX II is a completely self-sufficient appliance. After
assigning an IP address to a Dominion KX II, it is ready to use - with
Web browser and authentication capabilities completely built-in.
If an external authentication server (such as LDAP, Active Directory,
RADIUS, etc.) is used, Dominion KX II allows this as well, and will
even failover to its own internal authentication should the external
authentication server become unavailable. In this way, Dominion KX
II's design philosophy is optimized to provide ease of installation,
complete independence from any external server, and maximum
flexibility.
