In the "Network Settings" dialog, you can configure the settings of the general net-
work environment and specific identification parameters of the instrument in the
network.
The remote commands required to remotely configure the network are described in
Chapter 7.15, "SYSTem Subsystem" , on page 433.
Network Status
Indicates that the instrument is connected to the network.
Remote command:
:SYSTem:COMMunicate:NETWork:STATus?
on page 440
Hostname
Displays the host name.
Each instrument is delivered with an assigned host name, a logical name which can be
used instead of the IP address. With the default network settings, the IP address is
allocated by the DHCP server. This address may change each time the instrument is
reconnected. Unlike the IP address, the host name does not change.
Note: Since the host name of the instrument is a protected parameter, you must first
unlock protection level 1 to enable the entry (see Chapter 5.2.3.17, "Protection" ,
on page 113).
It is recommended that you neither change the default network settings nor the host
name in order to avoid problems with the network connection.
However, if you change the host name be sure to use an unique name.
Remote command:
:SYSTem:COMMunicate:NETWork[:COMMon]:HOSTname
on page 438
Workgroup
Sets the individual windows workgroup name of the R&S SMB. This parameter is
required in case the instrument is integrated in a windows network.
Note: Since the workgroup name of the instrument is a protected parameter, you must
first unlock protection level 1 to enable the entry (see Chapter 5.2.3.17, "Protection" ,
on page 113).
