Active KVM Client (AKC)
Overview
The Microsoft Windows .NET-based Active KVM Client (AKC) is
available with the KX II 2.2 (or later) and supports all KX II models,
although the KX2-101 and KSX2 models are not currently supported.
AKC is based on Microsoft Windows .NET technology and allows users
to run the client in Windows environments without the use of the Java
Runtime Environment (JRE), which is required to run Raritan's Virtual
KVM and Multi-Platform clients. AKC also works with CC-SG.
AKC and VKC share similar features with the exception of the following:
 Minimum system requirements
 Supported operating systems and browsers
 Keyboard macros created in AKC cannot be used in VKC.
See the Virtual KVM Client (on page 52) section for information on
using the available features of the application. If there is a difference
between how AKC functions as compared to VKC, it is noted in the topic.
Also see Enabling Direct Port Access (on page 143)and Enabling
the AKC Download Server Certificate Validation (on page 144) for
configuration information on using AKC.
Note: If you are using direct port access with AKC, you must open a new
browser window or browser tab for each target you want to access. If you
try to access another target by entering the DPA URL into the same
browser window or browser tab you are currently accessing a target
from, you will not be able to connect and may receive an error.
