Specifications
HTTP: The instrument’s built-in web page can be accessed
with any standard web browser using hypertext transfer
protocol (http) and the analyzer’s IP address. The built-in web
page can be used to control the network analyzer, view screen
images, download documentation, and link to other sites for
firmware upgrades and VXIplug&play drivers. Some word
processor and spreadsheet programs, such as Microsoft
Word 97 and Excel 97, provide methods to directly import
graphics and data with http via a LAN connection.
SICL LAN:
SICL LAN is a LAN protocol using the Standard
Instrument Control Library (SICL). It provides control of your
analyzer over the LAN using a variety of computing platforms, I/O
interfaces, and operating systems. With SICL LAN, a remote analyzer
can be controlled over the LAN with the same methods used for a
local analyzer connected directly to the controller with HP-IB. SICL
LAN can also be used with Windows 95/98/NT, or HP-UX.
Bootp: Bootstrap protocol (bootp) allows a network analyzer to
automatically configure itself at power-on with the necessary
information to operate on the network. After a bootp request is sent
by the analyzer, the host server downloads an IP address, a gateway
address, and a subnet mask. In addition, the analyzer can request an
IBASIC file, which automatically executes after the transfer is
complete. For Windows-based applications, third-party bootp-server
software must be installed on the PC. Bootp is fully supported in most
versions of UNIX.
