ƒ Auto. This is the recommended option; the Dominion KX II auto-

negotiates to the highest level of encryption possible.

ƒ RC4. Secures user names, passwords and KVM data, including

video transmissions using the RSA RC4 encryption method. This
is a 128-bit Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol which provides a
private communications channel between the Dominion KX II
unit and the Remote PC during initial connection authentication.

ƒ AES-128. The Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) is a National

Institute of Standards and Technology specification for the
encryption of electronic data; 128 is the key length. When AES-
128 is specified, please be certain that your browser supports it,
otherwise you will not be able to connect. Please refer to
Checking Your Browser for AES Encryption (on page 153) for
more information.

this option applies the selected encryption mode to both KVM and
virtual media. After authentication, KVM and virtual media data is
also transferred with 128-bit encryption.

• PC Share Mode. Determines global concurrent remote KVM access,

enabling up to eight remote users to simultaneously log on to one
Dominion KX II and concurrently view and control the same target
server through the device. Click on the drop-down list to select one
of the following options:

ƒ Private: No PC share; this is the default mode. Each target server

can be accessed exclusively by only one user at a time.
