IBM AIX Settings
For target servers running the IBM AIX operating system, go to the Style Manager, click on
Mouse Settings and set Mouse acceleration to 1.0 and Threshold to 3.0.
Configurable Hotkey
The Control+Alt+m key sequence displays the RRC/MPC Shortcut menu. This sequence can be
configured to a key other than the “m” key.
Please note, however, that some key sequences are pre-defined by certain operating systems. For
UK keyboards, the “a” and “i” keys should not be used. Press Control+Alt to see the current
hotkey sequence.
This hotkey sequence can be reconfigured from the Tools/Options panel.
Configuring Network Firewall Settings
If you wish to access Dominion KX through a network firewall, your firewall must allow
communication on TCP Port 5000. Dominion KX can also be configured to use a different TCP
port of your designation (please see
Chapter 3: Administrative Functions, Network
Configuration for additional information).
Optional: To take advantage of Dominion KX’s web-access capabilities, the firewall must also
allow inbound communication on TCP Port 443 – the standard TCP port for HTTPS
communication. To take advantage of Dominion KX’s automatic redirection of HTTP requests to
HTTPS (i.e., so users may type the more common, “http://xxx.xxx.xxxx” instead of
“https://xxx.xxx.xxxx”), then the firewall must also allow inbound communication on TCP Port
80 – the standard TCP port for HTTP communication.
Note: Depending on hardware status, firewall ports may require different settings. Please refer to
the table below:
