    Field/setting

    Description

    Apply Encryption Mode to KVM and Virtual Media

    Select this checkbox to use encryption for virtual media as well as KVM.

    PC Share

    Select PC Share to allow concurrent remote KVM access, enabling up to eight remote users to simultaneously log into one Dominion KX IV–101 and concurrently view and control the same target server through the device.

    Note: PC Share mode cannot be disabled when Auto Scan is enabled. See Auto Scan.

    PC Share Idle Timeout

    Set an idle time limit for users in PC Share mode. If a user has not moved the mouse or entered keyboard input and the timeout period expires, the user relinquishes control, and another user can access keyboard and mouse control of the target.

    Virtual Media Share

    This option is available only when PC-Share mode is enabled. When selected, Virtual Media Share permits the sharing of virtual media and audio among multiple users, that is, several users can access the same virtual media or audio session. The default is disabled.

    Disable Local Port Output

    If you will be using the Terminal Block Control feature, make sure this checkbox is cleared. When Disable Local Port Output is selected, this setting will override all other permissions for terminal block control. See Terminal Block Control.

    Local Device Reset Mode

    This option specifies which actions are taken when the hardware Reset button on the device is depressed. Choose one of the following options:

    • Enable Local Factory Reset (default): Returns the Dominion KX IV–101 device to the factory defaults.
    • Enable Local Admin Password Reset: Resets the local administrator password only. The password is reset to "raritan".
    • Disable All Local Resets: No reset action is taken.

    Enable Direct Port Access via URL

    When selected, users can access the target directly by entering login credentials for the Dominion KX IV–101 in a URL. See Direct Port Access URL.
