Chapter 3: Raritan Remote Client (RRC)
Raritan Remote Client (RRC) is Dominion KX and KX101’s graphical user interface, which provides
remote access to the target servers connected to a KX unit. Most users invoke Internet Explorer, while other
users, particularly those operating over a modem connection, choose to invoke RRC standalone.
Invoking RRC via Web Browser
Dominion KX features Web Browser access capabilities, providing a connection from any Windows-based
Remote PC running Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 (Mozilla 1.7, Netscape 7+, FireFox, and Safari are
supported by Raritan MPC [Multi-platform Client]. Please refer to Raritan’s MPC User Guide for
additional information).
Security Settings
In order to access Dominion KX via web browser, your web browser must be configured appropriately, in
particular, the Internet Explorer security settings tab:
• Download Signed ActiveX controls should be set to either “Enable” or “Prompt”
• Run ActiveX controls and plug-ins should be set to either “Enable” or “Prompt”
Please consult your Microsoft Internet Explorer documentation for details regarding these settings.
Note: Microsoft Windows 2000, Microsoft Windows XP, and Microsoft Windows 2003 restrict certain
types of users from downloading and running ActiveX controls and plug-ins, regardless of the above
settings in Internet Explorer. Please consult your Microsoft Windows documentation for more information.
