Chapter 2: Installation and Configuration
22
Define User Groups and Users
As part of the initial configuration, in order for users to access the
Dominion KX II, you will need to define user groups and users.
The Dominion KX II uses system-supplied default user groups and
allows you to create groups and specify the appropriate permissions to
suit your needs.
User names and passwords are required to gain access to the Dominion
KX II. This information is used to authenticate users attempting to access
your Dominion KX II.
See User Management (on page 149) for more information about
addin
g and e
diting user groups and users.
Step 3: Configure KVM Target Servers
KVM target servers are the computers that will be accessed and
controlled via the Dominion KX II. Before installing the Dominion KX II,
configure all KVM target servers to ensure optimum performance. This
configuration applies only to KVM target servers, not to the client
workstations (remote PCs) used to access the Dominion KX II remotely.
See Terminology (on page 7) for additional information.
Desktop Background
For optimal bandwidth efficiency and video performance, KVM target
servers running graphical user interfaces such as Windows, Linux, X-
Windows, Solaris, and KDE require configuration. The desktop
background need not be completely solid; but desktop backgrounds
featuring photos or complex gradients might degrade performance.
