Step 2: Configure Network Firewall Settings
To enable remote access to the KX II, your network and
firewall must allow communication on TCP Port 5000. You
can also configure the KX II to use a different TCP port, then
allow communication on that port.
To access he KX II via Web browser, your firewall must also
allow access to TCP Port 443 (Standard HTTPS). Access to
TCP Port 80 (Standard HTTP) enables automatic redirection
of "HTTP" requests to "HTTPS".
