Question Answer
I’m having problems connecting to
the Dominion KX III over my IP
network. What could be the
problem?
The Dominion KX III relies on your LAN/WAN
network. Some possible problems include:
Ethernet auto-negotiation. On some networks,
10/100 auto-negotiation does not work properly,
and the Dominion KX III unit must be set to 100
Mb/full duplex or the appropriate choice for its
network.
Duplicate IP address. If the IP address of the
Dominion KX III
is the same as another device, network
connectivity may be inconsistent.
Port 5000 conflicts. If another device is using
port 5000, the Dominion KX III default port must
be changed (or the other device must be
changed).
When changing the IP address of a Dominion
KX III, or swapping in a new Dominion KX III,
sufficient time must be allowed for its IP and
Mac
®
addresses to be known throughout the
Layer 2 and Layer 3 networks.
