Figure 2-4. Typical Site LAN Network Connections.
On site networks, the L4400 instruments and the computer are connected
directly to site LAN ports, or are connected to the site LAN through a switch.
In each site network configuration, standard LAN cables are used.
Once all LAN cables are connected, turn on the L4400A instrument.
IP Addresses and Host Names
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) and Automatic IP are enabled
on each L4400 series instrument shipped from Agilent. This allows the
instrument to automatically obtain an address on the network. If there is a
DHCP server on the network, the server will assign the address to the
instrument.
If there is not a DHCP server on the network, the L4400 instrument will
automatically determine an address to use. The address will be in the range of
169.254.xxx.xxx. If available, the instrument will try to acquire its default
setting of 169.254.44.88.
