5.1.5.4 Changing the Windows Firewall Settings
A firewall protects an instrument by preventing unauthorized users from gaining access
to it through a network. Rohde & Schwarz highly recommends the use of the firewall on
your instrument. Rohde & Schwarz instruments are shipped with the Windows firewall
enabled and preconfigured in such a way that all ports and connections for remote
control are enabled.
For more details on firewall configuration, see the following Rohde & Schwarz White
Paper:
