Security and Authentication

In order to use the KX III Local Console, you must first authenticate with
a valid username and password.
The KX III provides a fully-integrated authentication and security scheme,
whether your access is via the network or the local port.
In either case, the KX III allows access only to those servers to which a
user has access permissions. See
additional information on specifying server access and security settings.
If your KX III has been configured for external authentication services
(LDAP/LDAPS, RADIUS, or Active Directory), authentication attempts at
the Local Console also are authenticated against the external
authentication service.
Note: You can also specify no authentication for Local Console access;
this option is recommended only for secure environments.
To use the KX III Local Console:
1. Connect a keyboard, mouse, and video display to the local ports at
the back of the KX III.
2. Start the KX III. The KX III Local Console interface displays.
Configuring KX III Local Port Settings from the Local Console
The standard local port can be configured from the Remote Console on
the Port Configuration page, or from the Local Console on the Local Port
Settings page.
From the Local Port Settings page, you can customize many settings for
the KX III Local Console including keyboard, hot keys, video switching
delay, power save mode, local user interface resolution settings, and
local user authentication.
Note: Only users with administrative privileges can access these
functions.
Note: Some changes you make to the settings on the Local Port Settings
page restart the browser you are working in. If a browser restart occurs
when a setting is changed, it is noted in the steps provided here.
To configure the local port settings:
1. Choose Device Settings > Local Port Settings. The Local Port
Settings page opens.
