Remote Authentication
Introduction
Note to CommandCenter Users
If you plan to configure Dominion KX to be integrated with and controlled by Raritan’s CommandCenter
management appliance, this section of the User Manual does not apply to you. When a Dominion KX unit
is controlled by CommandCenter, CommandCenter determines the allowed users and groups. Please refer
to your CommandCenter User Guide.
Note to Raritan Customers Upgrading from Previous Firmware Versions
If you have previously implemented RADIUS authentication on Raritan products such as Dominion KSX
and IP-Reach running legacy firmware versions earlier than v3.2, read this entire section carefully.
Beginning with firmware version v3.2 and above, the implementation of external authentication has
changed significantly to provide more flexible and powerful configurations.
Supported Protocols
In order to simplify management of usernames and passwords, Dominion KX provides the capability to
forward authentication requests to an external authentication server. Dominion KX supports two external
authentication protocols: LDAP and RADIUS.
