The Dominion KX II stores an internal list of all user and group names to 
determine access authorization and permissions. This information is 
stored internally in an encrypted format. There are several forms of 
authentication and this one is known as “local authentication”. All users 
have to be authenticated. If the Dominion KX II is configured for 
LDAP/LDAPS or RADIUS, that authentication is processed first, followed 
by local authentication. 

Every Dominion KX II is delivered with three default user groups. These 
groups cannot be deleted: 

Admin 

Users that are members of this group have full 
administrative privileges. The original, factory-default 
user is a member of this group and has the complete 
set of system privileges. In addition, the Admin user 
must be a member of the Admin group. 

Unknown 

This is the default group for users who are 
authenticated externally using LDAP/LDAPS or 
RADIUS or who are unknown to the system. If the 
external LDAP/LDAPS or RADIUS server does not 
identify a valid user group, the Unknown group is 
used. In addition, any newly created user is 
automatically put in this group until assigned to 
another group. 

Individual 
Group 

An individual group is essentially a “group” of one. 
That is, the specific user is in its own group, not 
affiliated with other real groups. Individual groups can 
be identified by the “@” in the Group Name. The 
individual group allows a user account to have the 
same rights as a group.
