General Settings
On the Instrument Settings— General screen, you can
change the following settings for your EtherScope
Network Assistant:
•
Restore Defaults: resets the instrument to the
factory default settings. These include interface
configurations and address settings. If you restore
the instrument’s default settings, any changes that
you made to the instrument and all current data is
lost.
•
Edit user-defined devices: lets you edit or delete
existing user-defined devices, or add a new device
that is either outside of the local broadcast domain
or not being discovered.
•
Remote RFC 2544/ITO Throughput Testing:
enables/disables the instrument to serve as the RFC
2544/ITO Throughput remote server and to
interoperate with another EtherScope Network
Assistant serving as the local unit during a remote
throughput test.
•
Preferences
Show vendor prefix with MAC address: lets you
control how a device’s MAC address is shown. By
default, it is shown with a vendor prefix. When
the box is unchecked, the MAC address is shown
in raw hexidecimal format.
