Manageability 
Question 
Answer 
Can Dominion KX II be 
remotely managed and 
configured via Web 
browser? 
 
Yes. Dominion KX II can be completely configured remotely via Web 
browser. Note that this does require that the workstation have an 
appropriate Java Runtime Environment (JRE) version installed. 
Besides the initial setting of Dominion KX II's IP address, everything 
about the solution can be completely set up over the network. (In fact, 
using a crossover Ethernet cable and Dominion KX II's default IP 
address, you can even configure the initial settings via Web browser.) 
Can I backup and 
restore Dominion KX II's 
configuration? 
Yes. Dominion KX II's device and user configurations can be 
completely backed up for later restoration in the event of a catastrophe. 
Dominion KX II's backup and restore functionality can be used 
remotely over the network, or through a Web browser. 
What auditing or 
logging does Dominion 
KX II offer? 
For complete accountability, Dominion KX II logs all major user events 
with a date and time stamp. For instance, reported events include (but 
are not limited to): user login, user logout, user access of a particular 
server, unsuccessful login, configuration changes, etc. 
Can Dominion KX II 
integrate with Syslog? 
Yes. In addition to Dominion KX II's own internal logging capabilities, 
Dominion KX II can send all logged events to a centralized Syslog 
server. 
Can Dominion KX II 
integrate with SNMP? 
Yes. In addition to Dominion KX II's own internal logging capabilities, 
Dominion KX II can send SNMP tracks to SNMP management systems 
like HP Openview and Raritan's CC-NOC. 
Can Dominion KX II's 
internal clock be 
synchronized with a 
timeserver? 
Yes. Dominion KX II supports the industry-standard NTP protocol for 
synchronization with either a corporate timeserver, or with any public 
timeserver (assuming that outbound NTP requests are allowed through 
the corporate firewall).
