– DHCP: Disables or enables instrument's use of DHCP. The acronym DHCP stands for Dynamic Host Con-
figuration Protocol, a protocol for assigning dynamic IP addresses to networked devices. With dynamic address-
ing, a device can have a different IP address every time it connects to the network.
– When enabled, the instrument tries to obtain an IP address from a DHCP server. If a DHCP server is found, it
assigns a dynamic IP address, Subnet Mask, and Default Gateway to the instrument.
– When disabled, the instrument uses the static IP address, Subnet Mask, and Default Gateway during power-

to save your changes when you are done.
– Auto DNS: Assigns static IP addresses of Domain Name System (DNS) servers. A primary and a secondary
server address may be assigned.
– If DHCP is available and enabled, DHCP will auto-assign these server addresses. These auto-assigned server
addresses take precedence over the static addresses assigned with this command.
– If disabled, press Back > Addresses > Modify
– Press Apply to save your changes when you are done.
– mDNS: The multicast DNS (mDNS) service is for use in networks where no conventional DNS server is installed.
Cycling power or resetting the LAN always enables mDNS.
– Press mDNS Service to modify the instrument's mDNS service name.
– Press Apply to save your changes.
After enabling or disabling one or more services, press Back > Apply. After that, you must cycle instrument power for
the new settings to take effect.
