in the K2 Dyno Production Assistant Configuration Manual.

The K2 system must have a hosts table set up as described in the K2 System Guide.

If using the Browse feature, the K2 Summit system must be configured as described
in Configuring the K2 Summit system for K2 Dyno PA in the K2 Dyno Production
Assistant Configuration Manual
