remotely managed and
configured via web
browser?

browser. Note that this does require that your workstation have Java
Runtime Environment 1.4.2 installed.
Besides the initial setting of Dominion KX’s IP address, everything
about the solution can be completely set up over the network. (In fact,
using a crossover Ethernet cable and Dominion KX’s default IP
address, you can even configure even the initial settings configured via
Web browser.)

Dominion KX’s
configuration?
Yes, Dominion KX’s device and user configurations can be completely
backed up for later restoration in the event of a catastrophe. More

configuration and restore it on remaining units.
