SYSTem:COMMunicate:LAN:DOMain?
Reads the current network domain name and returns an ASCII string enclosed in double quotes.
Parameter Typical return
(none) "example.com"
Returns the domain name being used by the instrument: SYST:COMM:LAM:DOM?
– If Dynamic Domain Name System (DNS) is available on your network and your instrument uses DHCP, the
domain name is assigned by the Dynamic DNS service at power-on.
– If a domain name has not been assigned, a null string ("") is returned.
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 execute a SYSTem:COMMunicate:LAN:UPDate command to activ-
ate the setting.
Parameter Typical return
<address> = Four-byte dot notation ("nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn"), where "nnn" in
each case is a byte value in the range of 0 through 255.
[{CURRent | STATic}] Default = CURRent
"198.105.232.4"
Set a default gateway address:
SYST:COMM:LAN:GATE "198.105.232.4"
SYST:COMM:LAN:UPD
– CURRent - Returns address currently being used by the instrument.
– STATic - Returns address from non-volatile memory. This address is used if DHCP is disabled or unavailable.
– SYSTem:SECurity:IMMediate sets this parameter to its default value.
– If DHCP is enabled (SYSTem:COMMunicate:LAN:DHCP ON command), the specified default gateway is not used.
However, if the DHCP server fails to assign a valid IP address, the currently configured default gateway is used.
– The setting is non-volatile, and does not change when power has been off, after a Factory Reset (*RST com-
mand) or after an Instrument Preset (SYSTem:PRESet command).
– A gateway value of "0.0.0.0" indicates that subnetting is not being used.
