Enabling Direct Port Access via URL
Direct port access allows users to bypass having to use the device's
Login dialog and Port Access page.
This feature also provides the ability to enter a username and password
directly to proceed to the target, if the username and password is not
contained in the URL.
If you are using the Virtual KVM Client (VKC) and direct port access, use
one of the following syntaxes:
https://IPaddress/dpa.asp?username=username&password=passwo
rd&port=port number
https://IPaddress/dpa.asp?username=username&password=passwo
rd&portname=port name
To enable direct port access:
1. Choose Device Settings > Device Services. The Device Service
Settings page opens.
2. Select Enable Direct Port Access via URL if you would like users to
have direct access to a target via the Dominion device by passing in
the necessary parameters in the URL.
3. Click OK.
Configuring SNMP Agents
SNMP-compliant devices, called agents, store data about themselves in
Management Information Bases (MIBs) and return this data to the SNMP
managers. See
Viewing the KX II-101-V2 MIB
(on page 114) for
information on viewing the KX II-101-V2 MIB.
KX II-101-V2 supports SNMP logging for SNMP v1/v2c and/or v3. SNMP
v1/v2c defines message formats and protocol operations when SNMP
logging is enabled. SNMP v3 is a security extension of SNMP that
provides user authentication, password management and encryption.
To configure SNMP agents:
1. Choose Device Settings > Device Services. The Device Service
Settings page opens.
2. Provide the following SNMP agent identifier information for the MIB-II
System Group objects:
a. System Name - the SNMP agent's name/device name
b. System Contact - the contact name related to the device
c. System Location - the location of the device
