Note to CC-SG Users
If you are using the Dominion KX in a CommandCenter Secure Gateway
configuration, this section of the user guide does not apply to you. When
the device is controlled by CommandCenter Secure Gateway, CC-SG
determines Remote Authentication. See the CommandCenter Secure
Gateway User Guide, Administrator Guide, or Deployment Guide on the
Raritan website (www.raritan.com http://www.raritan.com).
Supported Protocols
In order to simplify management of usernames and passwords, the
Dominion KX provides you with the ability to forward authentication
requests to an external authentication server. The device supports two
external authentication protocols: LDAP and RADIUS.
Note on Microsoft Active Directory
Microsoft Active Directory uses the LDAP protocol natively, and can
function as an LDAP server and authentication source for the Dominion
KX. If it has the IAS (Internet Authorization Server) component, a
Microsoft Active Directory server can also serve as a RADIUS
authentication source.
Note on Remote Login Usernames and Passwords
The Dominion KX login user name and password are both limited to 16
characters. Keep this limitation in mind when setting up remote
authentication, because remote authentication usernames and password
could exceed this minimum length.
