3.1.7 Connecting to LAN
Network environment
Before connecting the product to a local area network (LAN), consider the following:
●
Install the latest firmware to reduce security risks.
●
For internet or remote access, use secured connections if applicable.
●
Ensure that the network settings comply with the security policies of your company.
Contact your local system administrator or IT department before connecting your
product to your company LAN.
●
When connected to the LAN, the product may potentially be accessed from the
internet, which may be a security risk. For example, attackers might misuse or
damage the product.
To connect to LAN
► Connect the LAN socket on the rear panel via an RJ-45 cable to the LAN.
Using DHCP (dynamic host configuration protocol), the R&S SMB100B assigns the
IP address automatically.
If connected to the LAN, the R&S SMB100B displays the IP address and the host-
name at the left bottom of the home screen.
