Appendix D: FAQs315Ethernet and IP NetworkingDoes the KX II offer dual gigabit Ethernet ports to provideredundant fail-over?Yes. The KX II features dual gigabit Ethernet ports to provide redundantfailover capabilities. Should the primary Ethernet port (or theswitch/router to which it is connected) fail, the KX II will failover to thesecondary network port with the same IP address, ensuring that serveroperations are not disrupted. Note that automatic failover must beenabled by the administrator.What is the speed of the KX II's Ethernet interfaces?The KX II supports gigabit as well as 10/100 Ethernet. The KX IIsupports two 10/100/1000 speed Ethernet interfaces, with configurablespeed and duplex settings (either autodetected or manually set).Does the KX II offer dual gigabit Ethernet ports to provideredundant failover or load balancing?Yes. Dominion KX II features dual gigabit Ethernet ports to provideredundant failover capabilities. Should the primary Ethernet port (or theswitch/router to which it is connected) fail, Dominion KX II will failover tothe secondary network port with the same IP address – ensuring thatserver operations are not disrupted. Note that automatic failover must beenabled by the administrator.Can I access the KX II over a wireless connection?Yes. The KX II not only uses standard Ethernet, but also veryconservative bandwidth with very high quality video. Thus, if a wirelessclient has network connectivity to the KX II, servers can be configuredand managed at BIOS-level wirelessly.Can the KX II be used over the WAN (Internet), or just over thecorporate LAN?Whether via a fast corporate LAN, the less predictable WAN (Internet),cable modem or dial-up modem, the KX II's KVM-over-IP technology canaccommodate the connection.Can I use the KX II with a VPN?Yes, the KX II uses standard Internet Protocol (IP) technologies fromLayer 1 through Layer 4. Traffic can be easily tunneled through standardVPNs.Can I use KX II with a proxy server?Yes. The KX II can be used with a SOCKS proxy server, assuming theremote client PC is configured appropriately.
