Use Dynamic DNS Registers the hostname using the Dynamic DNS naming
naming service system.
Use NetBIOS Registers the hostname using the RFC NetBIOS naming
naming service protocol.
Select Domain if your DNS server requires an instrument to register
not only the hostname, but also the domain name.
Domain name Registers the Internet domain for the instrument. The
Domain must start with a letter and may contain upper
and lower case letters, numbers, dashes(-) and dots(.).
Use the navigation keys to enter an alpha character. Use
the up/down navigation or arrow keys to select a letter
from the alphabetic choices as you scroll through the
selections. Use the number keys to enter a number.
Select DNS to configure the Domain Name System (DNS) setup of the
instrument. DNS is an internet service that translates domain names
into IP addresses. It is needed for the instrument to find and display
its hostname assigned by the network.
Obtain DNS server Select this item to obtain the DNS server address from
from DHCP DHCP. You must have enabled DHCP in the IP menu.
Use the following Select this item if you are not using DHCP or need to
DNS server connect to a specific DNS server.
DNS Server This value is the address of the DNS server. It is used if
you are not using DHCP or if you need to connect to a
specific DNS server.
For improved performance when connected to an isolated subnet, select Use
the following DNS server. However, leave the DNS server address field blank.
Select TCP to configure the TCP keepalive settings of the instrument
Enable TCP Check the Enable box to enable the TCP keepalive
Keepalive function. The instrument uses the TCP keepalive timer to
determine if a client is still reachable. If there has been
no activity on the connection after the specified time, the
instrument will send keepalive probes to the client to
determine if it is still alive. If not, the connection will be
marked as down or "dropped." The instrument will
release any resources that were allocated to that client.
TCP keepalive This is the delay in seconds before TCP keepalive probes
timeout will be sent to the client. It is recommended that the
largest value be used that still meets the application's
need for unreachable client detection. Smaller keepalive
timeout values will generate more keepalive probes
(network traffic), using more of the available network
bandwidth. Allowed values: 720 - 99999 seconds.
