Configure LAN settings through the front panel
All instruments need to be configured before they can be used on a network. The main parameters
that need to be configured for IPv4 are:
•
IP Addressing mode: Models 707B and 708B have a choice of Auto or Manual. Auto mode means the
instrument will try to get and address through a DHCP server first and if this fails it will revert to Auto-IP
mode. Manual is static IP addressing.
•
Subnet Mask.
•
Gateway.
•
DNS Server address if you are using DNS.
Instruments with front panel displays and menus allow you to configure the instrument LAN settings
through the front panel.
