Easy to Install and Manage
Full CLI-based Configuration and
Management
The SX II offers complete CLI administration and management via
SSH, Telnet and web-based user interface. Two script-based
automatic configuration methods are available for a fast installation
and for subsequent configuration changes.
Automatic Configuration via USB
Drive
The SX II can be optionally configured via a CLI script on a USB
drive connected to one of its USB ports. This can be used for initial
configuration or subsequent updates.
Automatic Configuration via
TFTP Server
The SX II can be optionally configured via a second method, i.e. via
a CLI script contained in a TFTP server. This can be used for initial
configuration or subsequent updates. The TFTP server address can
be retrieved via DHCP or set by the administrator.
Dominion-Compatible
Management
Dominion-compatible management features are available via a web-
based user interface or CLI. This includes Dominion-style User
Management, Device Settings, Security, Maintenance, Diagnostic
and Help features. Firmware update via web browser without the
use of an FTP server.
Easy to Install
Installation in minutes, with just a web browser, CLI or automatic
configuration. Some competitive products require burdensome
editing of multiple files to complete a basic installation.

including: device operation, device management changes, security,
user activity and user administration. These can be selectively
delivered to: SNMP, Syslog, email (SMTP) as well as stored on the
