SYSTem:COMMunicate:LAN:GATeway "<address>"
SYSTem:COMMunicate:LAN:GATeway? [{CURRent|STATic}]]
Assigns a default gateway for the instrument. The specified IP Address sets the default gateway, which allows the
instrument to communicate with systems that are not on the local subnet. Thus, this is the default gateway where
packets are sent that are destined for a device not on the local subnet, as determined by the Subnet Mask setting.
Contact your LAN administrator for details.
If you change this setting, you must send SYSTem:COMMunicate:LAN:UPDate to activate the new
setting.
Parameter Typical Return
Command: "nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn", default "0.0.0.0"
Query: {CURRent|STATic}, default CURRent
"198.105.232.1"
Set default gateway address:
SYST:COMM:LAN:GATEWAY "198.105.232.1"
SYST:COMM:LAN:UPD
l CURRent: returns address currently being used by the instrument.
l STATic: returns static address from non-volatile memory. This address is used if DHCP is disabled or unavailable.
l SYSTem:SECurity:IMMediate sets this parameter to its default value.
l On the 34460A, this requires option 34460A-LAN or option 3446LANU.
l If DHCP is enabled (SYSTem:COMMunicate:LAN:DHCP ON), the specified default gateway is not used. However, if
the DHCP server fails to assign a valid IP address, the currently configured default gateway will be used.
l This setting is non-volatile; it is not changed by power cycling, a Factory Reset (*RST), or an Instrument Preset
(SYSTem:PRESet).
