LAN Connection
The R&S
NGL/NGM is equipped with a network interface and can be connected to an
Ethernet LAN (local area network). A LAN connection is necessary for remote control
of the instrument, and for access from a computer using a web browser.
Risk of network failure
Before connecting the instrument to the network or configuring the network, consult
your network administrator. Errors may affect the entire network.
To establish a network connection, connect a commercial RJ-45 cable to the LAN port
of the instrument and to a PC or network switch.
