Overview
The Dominion KX II provides at-the-rack access and administration via its
local port, which features a browser-based graphical user interface for
quick, convenient switching between servers. The Dominion KX II Local
Console provides a direct analog connection to your connected servers,
which provides the same performance is as if you were directly
connected to the server's keyboard, mouse, and video ports. The
Dominion KX II Local Console provides the same administrative
functionality as the Dominion KX II Remote Console.
Using the Dominion KX II Local Console
Simultaneous Users
The Dominion KX II Local Console provides an independent access path
to the connected KVM target servers. Using the Local Console does not
prevent other users from simultaneously connecting over the network.
And even when remote users are connected to the Dominion KX II, you
can still simultaneously access your servers from the rack via the Local
Console.
