I just got new Rigol, and noticed network related issues with it. Are these known issues or is this possibly bad unit (otherwise unit seems to work perfectly, though)?
1) If trying to access the web interface of the unit (
http://x.x.x.x/), web interface and other ports stop responding. Sometimes I get the status page only partially (and network side is frozen) and sometimes it loads ok, but freeze happens when trying to re-load it or access any other pages. Interesting thing is that unit stops completely responding on all (TCP) ports when this happens. Only ping works after the freeze. Only restarting the scope seems to make it recover. However, the network stack "crash" doesn't seem to affect operation of the scope itself.
Accessing port 5555 seems to work fine (doesn't trigger this issue)....
2) DHCP client is very buggy. I observed unit requesting a IP/lease normally when its powered on, but it keeps then renewing the lease every 2-3 minutes, completely ignoring the actual lease time (in my case 24hours or 86400 seconds). Sane behaviour would be to wait at least about half the lease time before checking again with the DHCP server...
I have the latest firmware 00.04.03.SP1 (aka 00.04.03.01.05)
