Compression Tab 
Settings in the Compression Tab are adjustable via the RRC client, and therefore are not necessary for pre-
configuration in the Connection Profile. Should you wish to pre-configure these settings, however, refer to the 
section in this chapter labeled “Remote Desktop: KVM Console ControlConnection and Video Properties.” 
 
Security Tab 
 
 
 
If you have configured your Dominion KSX unit to use a private group key, you must enter it here in order to be 
authorized to initiate a connection with that Dominion KSX unit. Click on the [OK] button when you have 
completed the fields. 
When you have completed the Connect and Security screens, click on the [OK] button to finish creating the 
connection. 
 
Establishing a New Connection 
To connect to a Raritan networked device, simply double-click on its entry in the RRC Navigator. You will be asked 
to authenticate to the device. 
Note: The default Dominion KSX login user name is <admin>, with the password <raritan>. This 
user has administrative privileges. Passwords are case sensitive and must be entered in the exact 
case combination in which they were created.  
 
The default password <raritan> must be entered entirely in lowercase letters.   
To ensure security, change the default username password as soon as possible. 
If you do not see an entry for your Dominion KSX in the RRC Navigator, follow the instructions in the Creating 
New Profiles
 section in this chapter to create a new connection profile for your Dominion KSX. 
If you are having problems connecting to a Raritan device, be sure to check the following: 
• 
Username / Password: Raritan usernames and passwords are case-sensitive. 
• 
TCP Port: If you have configured your Raritan Device to use a non-default TCP Port, this information must be 
entered into its connection profile. 
• 
Firewall Settings: If you are accessing a Raritan Device through a firewall, that firewall must be configured to 
allow two-way communication on TCP Port 5000 (or the custom TCP Port to which your Raritan Device has 
been configured). 
• 
Security Key: If you have configured your Raritan Device to require a group security key, that key must be 
entered into the device's connection profile. 
 
Closing a Remote Connection 
When you would like to terminate your connection to a Dominion KSX unit, simply right-click on the device entry 
in the RRC Navigator, and select Disconnect
