Most of my test systems have 2 ethernet ports: one for instruments (rack network, using a switch) and a second for a system network (many test systems on a local network using a router for central storage, SVN repository, etc). But an ethernet port on the computer for each instrument is next to useless.
Ah you are right. 1 ethernet port for the instruments and 1 ethernet port for the connection to the corporate network.
Though when working in an secured area, the test PC would not be connected to the corporate network. Not allowed.
I avoid corporate networks like the plague. But I like having my test systems networked together (still not on the corporate network) for reasons mentioned above.
