Unlike TCP/IP sockets (``lan"), VXI-11 (``lxi") is a synchronous protocol that does not support
queueing multiple transactions. When an oscilloscope supports both the lan and the lxi transport,
chances are that the lan transport will have a better performance than the lxi transport.

This transport takes two arguments: hostname/IP and port number.

If port number is not specified, uses TCP port 1861 (IANA assigned) by default.

\subsection{usbtmc}

SCPI over USB Test \& Measurement Class protocol.

This transport takes one argument: path to the usbtmc kernel driver

Example:
\begin{lstlisting}[language=sh]
./glscopeclient myscope:siglent:usbtmc:/dev/usbtmc0
