Chapter 2: Installation and Configuration

Getting Started

KX II-101-V2 users with Microsoft ® Internet Explorer ® version 6 or
®
Windows 2000 must upgrade to Service Pack 4 (SP4) or higher.
The KX II-101-V2 ships with a static default IP address. On a network
without a DHCP server, you must configure a new static IP address, net
mask, and gateway address using either the KX II-101-V2 serial admin
console or the KX II-101-V2 Remote Console.
See Assigning an IP Address for information on assigning an IP address
to the KX II-101-V2 using the Remote Console.
See Configure the KX II-101-V2 Using a Terminal Emulation
Program (Optional) (on page 21) for information on setting an IP
address using the Serial Admin Console.
Note that the following configuration requirements apply only to the
target server, not to the computers that you remotely access the KX II-
101-V2.

Step 1: Configure the Target Server

Target Server Video Resolutions
For optimal bandwidth efficiency and video performance, a target server
running a graphical user interface such as Windows, X-Windows,
Solaris, and KDE should be configured with desktop backgrounds set to
a predominantly solid, light-colored graphic.
Backgrounds featuring photos or complex gradients should be avoided.
Ensure that the server's video resolution and refresh rate are supported
by the KX II-101-V2, and that the signal is non-interlaced.
See KX II-101-V2 Online Help for a list of support target server
resolutions.
