Installation, Management & Configuration
How do I initially configure the
SX II?
Initial configuration can be done manually from
the SX II local console or automatically via USB
stick or TFTP server. Manual configuration can
be done via CLI by connecting your laptop via (1)
USB , (2) serial cable, or (3) by connecting a KVM
console. You can also (4) use the web GUI
connecting a laptop via a crossover cable. A
Quick Setup Guide (QSG) is included.
Can the SX II be completely
managed by CLI? Where is the
CLI defined?
Yes, the SX II can be completely managed via CLI
commands. The CLI is defined in the on-line help,
user guide and available from the CLI itself.
Tell me more about the automatic
configuration options.
There are two ways to automatically configure the
SX II. First, it can be configured by a script of CLI
commands, plugged into a USB port on the SX II.
Second, a script of CLI commands can be stored
on a TFTP server available via DHCP Server or
configured into the SX. For security, both of these
automatic configuration methods must be enabled
by the administrator.
Does the SX II require a FTP
Server for firmware upgrades like
the current SX?
No, the SX II firmware upgrade process is like that
of the KX III. No FTP server is required. The user
browses to an encrypted firmware file downloaded
from the Raritan website. Many of the
management functions are the same as with the
KX III. Note that the FTP option still exists via CLI
to upgrade the device in this manner.
Can I copy my current SX
configuration to the new SX II?"
With the extensive software and hardware
changes, the configuration backups of the current
SX are unfortunately not compatible with the new
SX II.
Where can I get a copy of the
SNMP MIB for Dominion SX?
The SX II SNMP MIB is available from the
Dominion SX II Support Page on raritan.com. It
is also available from the Event Management -
Settings page on the web GUI.
Does the SX II work with
Raritan's Command Center?
Yes. The Dominion SX II requires
CommandCenter Secure Gateway Release 6.1
and above, available in September 2015. Using
CommandCenter, users can connect to thousands
of serial (and KVM) devices, connected to the
Dominion SX, SX II, KX III and other Raritan
devices.
