Remote command:
:SYSTem:COMMunicate:NETWork[:COMMon]:HOSTname on page 1230
Workgroup
Sets the individual windows workgroup name of the R&S SMW. This parameter is
required in case the instrument is integrated in a windows network.
This function is password-protected. Unlock the protection level 1 to access it.
Remote command:

Address Mode
Selects the mode for assigning the IP address.
How to: Chapter 13.6.4, "How to Assign the IP Address", on page 804
"Auto (DCHP)"
Assigns the IP address automatically, provided the network supports
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol).
"Static"
Enables you to assign the IP address manually.
Remote command:
:SYSTem:COMMunicate:NETWork:IPADdress:MODE on page 1228
IP Address
Displays the IP address of the instrument in the network.
By default, the R&S SMW is configured to use dynamic TCP/IP configuration and to
obtain the whole address information automatically.
If the network does not support DHCP or the attempt does not succeed, the instrument
tries to obtain the IP address via Zeroconf (APIPA) protocol. IP addresses assigned via
Zeroconf start with the number blocks 169.254.*.*.
Note: An IP address that is assigned via the Zeroconf protocol although the network
requires an IP address assigned via the DHCP server can cause network connection
failures.
See Chapter 15.5, "Resolving Network Connection Failures", on page 1261.
