Microsoft regularly creates security updates and other patches to protect Windows-based operating systems. They are released through the Microsoft Update
website and associated update server. Update instruments using Windows regularly, especially instruments that connect to a network.
Firewall settings
A firewall protects an instrument by preventing unauthorized users from gaining
access to it through a network. Rohde & Schwarz highly recommends using the
firewall on your instrument. Rohde & Schwarz instruments are shipped with the
Windows firewall enabled. All ports and connections for remote control are
enabled.
Note that changing firewall settings requires administrator rights.
Virus protection
Take appropriate steps to protect your instruments from infection. Use strong firewall settings and scan any removable storage device used with a
Rohde & Schwarz instrument regularly. It is also recommended that you install
