3.5.4 Changing the Windows Firewall Settings

A firewall protects an instrument by preventing unauthorized users from gaining

access to it through a network. Rohde & Schwarz highly recommends the use of

the firewall on your instrument. Rohde & Schwarz instruments are shipped with

the Windows firewall enabled and preconfigured in such a way that all ports and

connections for remote control are enabled.
