Connect to the Instrument via LAN (Site and Private)

Site LAN
A site LAN is a local area network in which LAN-enabled instruments and computers are connected to the network
through routers, hubs, and/or switches. They are typically large, centrally-managed networks with services such as
DHCP and DNS servers. The following figure illustrates a typical site LAN system.
1. Connect the instrument to the site LAN or to your computer using a LAN cable. The as-shipped instrument LAN set-
tings are configured to automatically obtain an IP address from the network using a DHCP server (DHCP is ON by
default). The DHCP server will register the instrument's hostname with the dynamic DNS server. The hostname as
well as the IP address can then be used to communicate with the instrument. The front panel LAN indicator will
come on when the LAN port has been configured.
If you need to manually configure any instrument LAN settings, refer to
figuration
2. Use the Connection Expert utility of the Keysight IO Libraries Suite to add the instrument and verify a connection. To
add the instrument, you can request the Connection Expert to discover the instrument. If the instrument cannot be
found, add the instrument using its hostname or IP address.
If this does not work, refer to "Troubleshooting Guidelines" in the Keysight Technologies
USB/LAN/GPIB Interfaces Connectivity Guide included with the Keysight IO Libraries Suite.
3. You can now use Interactive IO within the Connection Expert to communicate with your instrument, or you can pro-
gram your instrument using the various programming environments. You can also use the Web browser on your com-
puter to communicate with the instrument as described under Remote Control.
Private LAN
A private LAN is a network in which LAN-enabled instruments and computers are directly connected, and not
connected to a site LAN. They are typically small, with no centrally-managed resources. The following figure
illustrates a typical private LAN system.
