− Auto. This is the recommended option; the Dominion KX II auto-negotiates to the
highest level of encryption possible.
− RC4. Secures user names, passwords and KVM data, including video transmissions using
the RSA RC4 encryption method. This is a 128-bit Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol
which provides a private communications channel between the Dominion KX II unit and
the Remote PC during initial connection authentication.
− AES-128. The Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) is a National Institute of Standards
and Technology specification for the encryption of electronic data; 128 is the key length.
When AES-128 is specified, please be certain that your browser supports it, otherwise
you will not be able to connect. Please refer to
Checking Your Browser for AES
Encryption for more information.
• Apply Encryption Mode to KVM and Virtual Media. When checked, this option applies
the selected encryption mode to both KVM and virtual media. After authentication, KVM and
virtual media data is also transferred with 128-bit encryption.
