E4438C Vector Signal Generator Overview
Calibration
NOTE If the PSG’s dynamic host configuration protocol (DHCP) is enabled, the network assigns
the instrument an IP address at power on. Because of this, when DHCP is enabled, the IP
address may be different each time you turn on the instrument. DHCP does not affect the
hostname.
