3 Remote Interface Configuration
Host Name
The Host Name is the host portion of the domain name, which is translated into an IP
address.
• Changing the Host Name will cause an automatic LAN reset.
• The default Host Name for the multimeter is “A–34410A–nnnnn” for the 34410A,
and “A–34411A–nnnnn” for the 34411A, where nnnnn is the last five digits of the
instrument’s serial number representation.
• If Dynamic Domain Name System (DNS) is available on your network and your
multimeter uses DHCP, the Host Name is registered with the Dynamic DNS service
at power–on.
• The Host Name is stored in non–volatile memory, and does not change when power
has been off, after a Factory Reset (*RST) command, or after an Instrument Preset
(SYSTem:PRESet) command.
DNS Server
The Domain Name Service (DNS) is an Internet service that translates Domain names
into IP addresses. Contact your network administrator to determine if DNS is being used
and for the correct address.
• If you change the DNS address, you must cycle power on the multimeter to activate
the new setting.
• The default DNS Address for the multimeter is “0.0.0.0”.
• The DNS Server address is stored in non–volatile memory, and does not change when
power has been off, after a Factory Reset (*RST) command, or after an Instrument
Preset (SYSTem:PRESet) command.
