Checking Your Browser for AES Encryption
The Dominion KX II supports AES-256. If you do not know if your
browser uses AES, check with the browser manufacturer or navigate to
the https://www.fortify.net/sslcheck.html website using the browser with
the encryption method you want to check. This website detects your
browser's encryption method and displays a report.
Note: IE6 does not support AES 128 or 256-bit encryption.
AES 256 Prerequisites and Supported Configurations
AES 256-bit encryption is supported on the following web browsers only:
• Firefox 2.0.0.x
• Mozilla 1.7.13
• Internet Explorer 7
In addition to browser support, AES 256-bit encryption requires the
installation of Java Cryptography Extension (JCE) Unlimited Strength
Jurisdiction Policy Files.
Jurisdiction files for various JRE's are available at the “other downloads”
section of the following link:
• JRE1.5 - http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index_jdk5.jsp
Configuring IP Access Control
Using IP access control, you can control access to your Dominion KX II.
By setting a global Access Control List (ACL) you are by ensuring that
your device does not respond to packets being sent from disallowed IP
addresses. The IP access control is global, affecting the Dominion KX II
as a whole, but you can also control access to your device at the group
level. See Group-Based IP ACL (Access Control List) (on page 101)
for more information ab
out gro
up-level control.
Important: IP address 127.0.0.1 is used by the Dominion KX II local
port. When creating an IP Access Control list, 127.0.0.1 is used by
the Dominion KX II and should not be within the range of IP
addresses that are blocked; you will not have access to the
Dominion KX II local port.
To use IP access control:
1. Open the IP Access Control page by selecting Security > IP Access
Control. The IP Access Control page opens.
2. Select the Enable IP Access Control checkbox to enable IP access
control and the remaining fields on the page.
