Enabling and disabling DHCP
You can enable or disable Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). When
DHCP is enabled (factory setting), the instrument will try to obtain an IP address
from a DHCP server. If a DHCP server is found, it will assign a dynamic IP address,
Subnet Mask, and Default Gateway to the instrument.
If a DHCP server is not found, the instrument uses AutoIP to automatically
configure its IPsetting in the Automatic Private IP Addressing range
(169.254.xxx.xxx).
When DHCP is disabled, the instrument will use the static IP address, Subnet
Mask, Default Gateway and DNS Server during power-on.
– Front-Panel Operation:
DHCP ENABLED/DISABLED
Setting the IP address
You can set the IP address for your 34972A. This menu option assigns the static IP
address for the instrument. You must disable DHCP in order to set this on the front
panel.
The static IP address is applied when DHCP is disabled. If DHCP is enabled, DHCP
will auto-assign the IP address. This auto-assigned IP address takes precedence
over the static IP address assigned with this feature.
