Appendix D: FAQs315To take advantage of the Dominion KX II's integrated power control userinterface, and more importantly, integrated security, use Raritan'sRemote Power Control (RPC) power strips. RPCs come in many outlet,connector, and amp variations. The D2CIM-PWR must be purchased toconnect the RPC to the Dominion KX II.ScalabilityHow do I connect multiple Dominion KX II devices together into onesolution?Multiple Dominion KX II devices do not need to be physically connectedtogether. Instead, each Dominion KX II device connects to the network.They automatically work together as a single solution if deployed withRaritan's optional CommandCenter Secure Gateway (CC-SG)management unit. CC-SG acts as a single access point for remoteaccess and management. CC-SG offers a significant set of convenienttools, such as consolidated configuration, consolidated firmware update,and a single authentication and authorization database.In addition, CC-SG enables sophisticated server sorting, permissions,and access. If deployment of Raritan's CC-SG management unit isn't anoption, multiple Dominion KX II devices still interoperate and scaleautomatically. The Dominion KX II's remote user interface and the Multi-Platform Client will automatically discover Dominion KX II devices. Non-discovered Dominion KX II devices can be accessed via a user-createdprofile.Can I connect an existing analog KVM switch to the Dominion KXII?Yes. Analog KVM switches can be connected to one of the Dominion KXII's server ports. Simply use a PS/2 Computer Interface Module (CIM)and attach it to the user ports of the existing analog KVM switch. PleaseNote that analog KVM switches vary in their specifications and Raritancannot guarantee the interoperability of any particular third-party analogKVM switch.
