Naming Target Servers
To name the target servers:
1. Connect all of the target servers if you have not already
done so.
2. Using the KX II Local Console, choose Device Settings >
Port Configuration. The Port Configuration page opens.
Specifying Power Supply Auto Detection
The KX II provides dual power supplies and can automatically
detect and provide notification regarding the status of these
power supplies. Proper configuration ensures that the KX II
sends the appropriate notifications should a power supply fail.
The Power Supply Setup page is configured to automatically
detect both power supplies when two power supplies are
used. If only one power supply is used in your configuration,
you can disable automatic detection from the Power Supply
Setup page.
To enable automatic detection for the power supplies
in use:
1. Choose Device Settings > Power Supply Setup. The
Power Supply Setup page opens.
2. If you are plugging power input into power supply number
one (left-most power supply at the back of the device),
select the Powerln1 Auto Detect option.
3. If you are plugging power input into power supply number
two (right-most power supply at the back of the device),
select the Powerln2 Auto Detect option.
4. Click OK.
Note: If either of these checkboxes is selected and power
input is not actually connected, the power LED at the front of
the device turns red.
Creating User Groups and Users
To add a new user group:
1. Open the Group page by selecting User Management >
Add New User Group or clicking the Add button from the
User Group List page.
The Group page is organized into the following categories:
Group, Permissions, Port Permissions, and IP ACL.
2. Type a descriptive name for the new user group into the
Group Name field (up to 64 characters).
3. Set the permissions for the group. Select the checkboxes
before the permissions you want to assign to all of the
users belonging to this group.
4. Set the port permissions. Specify the server ports that can
be accessed by users belonging to this group (and the
type of access).
5. Set the IP ACL. This feature limits access to the KX II
device by specifying IP addresses. It applies only to users
belonging to a specific group, unlike the IP Access Control
