"Help > Glossary" opens a document with a glossary of terms related to the
LXI standard.
5.2.3.1
LAN Configuration
The LAN configuration consists of three parts:
●
"IP configuration" provides all mandatory LAN parameters.
●
"Advanced LAN Configuration" provides LAN settings that are not declared
mandatory by the LXI standard.
●
"Ping Client" provides the ping utility to verify the connection between the
instrument and other devices.
IP Configuration
The "LAN Configuration > IP configuration" web page displays all mandatory LAN
parameters and allows their modification.
The "TCP/IP Mode" configuration field controls how the IP address for the instru-
ment gets assigned (see also
Chapter 5.2.2, "How to Assign the IP Address"
For the manual configuration mode, the static IP address, subnet mask, and
default gateway are used to configure the LAN. The automatic configuration
mode uses DHCP server or Dynamic Link Local Addressing (Automatic IP) to
obtain the instrument IP address.
Changing the LAN configuration is password-protected. The default pass-
word is

(notice upper and lower case characters).
Advanced LAN Configuration
The "LAN Configuration > Advanced LAN Configuration" parameters are used as
follows:
●
The "Negotiation" configuration field provides different Ethernet speed and
duplex mode settings. In general, the "Auto Detect" mode is sufficient.
●
"ICMP Ping" must be enabled to use the ping utility.
●
"VXI-11" is the protocol that is used to detect the instrument in the LAN.
According to the standard, LXI devices must use VXI-11 to provide a detection
mechanism; other additional detection mechanisms are permitted.
