Step 9. Configure a LAN connection (Optional)
You can configure the 86100C on a local area network (LAN) for file sharing
and using network printers. If you do not know how to set up a network, con-
tact your network administrator or use the Windows XP Professional on-line
help. Your company's network administrator can set up your instrument with
the appropriate client, protocol, and configuration for your LAN. If you plan
on sharing your instrument's hard disk drive with other computers on your
LAN, the network administrator should enable file sharing as part of the net-
work setup.
This procedure also shows you how to install the latest security updates for
Windows XP on the 86100C using Window's Security Center. Setting up the
Windows Firewall is also discussed.
