A system and method are provided for implementing a secure configuration of a networked system for secure communications, the networked system including at least one instrument for performing corresponding tasks and at least one controller for controlling functions of the at least one instrument. The method includes providing a secure instrument configuration (SIC); displaying status provided by the SIC server identifying the controller and the instruments to a user via a user interface; writing controller secure configuration information from the SIC server to the controller through a software agent on the controller, the controller secure configuration information including authentication data for the instruments, and/or credentials of the one controller acceptable by the one instruments for identifying the controller; and communicating with the controller to initiate implementation of the secure configuration. The controller establishes a secure connection with the instruments using the controller secure configuration information.

System and method for implementing a secure configuration of controllers and instruments in a networked system

An apparatus that moves stimulus data and response data between a memory and a device under test (DUT) over a plurality of data transfer banks. In a first mode the data transfer banks output the stimulus data to the DUT as respective independent banks of serial stimulus data channels, and write the response data into the memory responsive to data provided as respective independent banks of channels of serial data from the DUT. In a second mode the data transfer banks output the stimulus data to the DUT as a single bank of combined serial stimulus data channels, and write the response data into the memory responsive to the data provided as a combined single bank of channels of serial data from the DUT.
