Note to CC-SG Users

If you are using the Dominion KX II in a CC-SG configuration, perform

the installation steps, and when finished, consult the CommandCenter

Secure Gateway User Guide, Administrator Guide, or Deployment

Guide to proceed (all found on Raritan's website, www.raritan.com,

under Support).

Note: The remainder of this help applies primarily to deploying the

Dominion KX II device(s) without the integration functionality of CC-SG.

Remote Authentication

Note to CC-SG Users

When the Dominion KX II is controlled by CommandCenter Secure

Gateway, CC-SG authenticates users and groups, except for local users

requiring Local port access. When CC-SG is controlling the Dominion KX

II, Local port users will be authenticated against the local user database

or the remote authentication server (LDAP/LDAPS or RADIUS)

configured on the Dominion KX II. They will not be authenticated against

the CC-SG user database.

For additional information about CC-SG authentication, see the

CommandCenter Secure Gateway User Guide, Administrator Guide, or

Deployment Guide, which can be downloaded from the Support section

of the Raritan website http://www.raritan.com.

Supported Protocols

To simplify management of usernames and passwords, the Dominion KX

II provides the ability to forward authentication requests to an external

authentication server. Two external authentication protocols are

supported: LDAP/LDAPS and RADIUS.

Note on Microsoft Active Directory

Microsoft

Active Directory

uses the LDAP/LDAPS protocol natively, and

can function as an LDAP/LDAPS server and authentication source for

the Dominion KX II. If it has the IAS (Internet Authorization Server)

component, a Microsoft Active Directory server can also serve as a

RADIUS authentication source.
