78 DOMINION KX USER GUIDE
Raritan Remote Client (RRC) Applet
Operating System Requirements: Windows XP / NT* / ME / 2000 / 2003 with DirectX.
* Windows NT support for some international keys are limited due to limited Microsoft support for DirectX on the
Windows NT platform
Dominion KX Manager (Remote Administration Applet)

version 1.4.2_05 is used. If this version is not installed on the desktop client, your system will prompt you
to install.
TCP Ports Used
• HTTP, Port 80 (optional) – All requests received by Dominion KX via HTTP (port 80) are
automatically forwarded to HTTPS for complete security. Dominion KX responds to Port 80 for user
convenience, relieving users from having to explicitly type “Https://” in the URL field to access
Dominion KX, but while still preserving complete security.
• HTTPS, Port 443 (optional) – This port is used for a single purpose only: to send the Dominion KX
web-accessible clients (Raritan Remote Client and Dominion KX Manager) to the user. No other
communication occurs on this port. If you do not wish to use Dominion KX’s web-access capabilities
and instead prefer to use the installed client software provided on CD-ROM, you can prevent access to
Port 443 via your firewall and Dominion KX can still function.
• Dominion KX (Raritan KVM Over IP) Protocol, Configurable Port 5000 – With the exception of
the above, all communication to Dominion KX occurs over a single, configurable TCP Port. By default,
this is set to Port 5000, but you may configure it to use any TCP port of your choice (except 80 and
443). For details on how to configure this setting, please see Chapter 4: Administrative Functions,
Network Configuration.
• SNTP (Time Server) on Configurable UDP Port 123 (optional) – Dominion KX offers the optional
capability to synchronize its internal clock to a central time server. This function requires the use of
UDP Port 123 (the standard for SNTP), but can also be configured to use any port of your designation.
• LDAP on Configurable Ports 386 and 636 (optional) – If Dominion KX is configured to remotely
authenticate user logins via the LDAP protocol, ports 386 and 636 will be used, but the system can also
be configured to use any port of your designation.
• RADIUS on Configurable Port 1812, 1645, or custom port (optional) – If Dominion KX is
configured to remotely authenticate user logins via the RADIUS protocol, either port 1812 or 1645 will
be used, but the system can also be configured to use any port of your designation.
• RADIUS Accounting on Configurable Port – If Dominion KX is configured to remotely
authenticate user logins via the RADIUS protocol, and also employs RADIUS accounting for event
logging, an additional port of your designation will be used to transfer log notifications.
• SYSLOG on Configurable UDP Port 123 (optional) - If Dominion KX is configured to send
messages to a Syslog server, then the indicated port(s) will be used for communication - uses UDP Port
