Connecting Over LAN
Selecting the LAN network type
You can connect and configure your 34980A for Site LAN or Isolated (non-site)
LAN operation.
–A Site LAN network is defined as a local area network (LAN) in which
computers and LAN-enabled instruments are connected to a site LAN
(workgroup LAN, Intranet, or enterprise LAN) via optional routers, hubs, and/or
switches.
–An Isolated LAN network is defined as a local area network (LAN) in which
computers and LAN-enabled instruments are not
connected to a site LAN. Use
the crossover cable provided with the 34980A to make a direct connection
between the 34980A and your computer. Crossover cables are also supported
by many newer LAN switches or routers.
