This chapter describes how to install the Agilent 4986B Ethernet LanProbe Installing the Agilent LanProbe consists of the following tasks:

“Selecting a Location” on page 31 “Installing the Probe” on page 32 “Connecting the Probe” on page 37

z“Starting the Probe” on page 47 “Verifying the Installation” on page 48

If you plan to configure the probe from a local terminal and have not yet done so, go to Chapter 2 “Local Terminal Configuration”, and perform the configuration now.
