Initial Configuration Using CLI

Getting Started

(on page 13)

for more information.

Dominion KX II devices come from the factory with default factory
settings. When you first power up and connect to the device, you must
set the following basic parameters so the device can be accessed
securely from the network:

1. Reset the administrator password. All Dominion KX II devices are

shipped with the same default password. Therefore, to avoid security
breaches it is imperative that you change the admin password from
raritan to one customized for the administrators who will manage the
Dominion KX II device.

2. Assign the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway IP address to

allow remote access.

Note: Both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses are supported.

Setting Parameters

To set parameters, you must be logged on with administrative privileges.
At the top level, you will see the "Username" > prompt, which for the
initial configuration is "admin". Enter the top command to return to the
top menu level.

Note: If you have logged on with a different user name, that user name
will appear instead of admin.
