+Your USRP-E series device can be used in network mode for narrow band signal observation, evaluation and debugging purposes. See the instructions below for how to use network mode.
Please note that when compared with normal operation as a standalone device the usable bandwidth is limited and therefore Network Mode is not the recommended mode of operation.
+\subsubsection e3x0_uhd_build Building UHD
+
+To work with your E-Series device in network mode, you will need to build UHD on your PC with extra CMake flags. Assuming you are in the host/build directory,
+see below:
+
+ $ cmake -DENABLE_E300=ON -DE300_FORCE_NETWORK=ON ..
+ $ make
+
+Once UHD is installed on your device, it will be able to interact with an E-Series device with network mode active (see below).

+\subsubsection e3x0_activating_network Activating Network Mode on the Device

In order to use the device in network mode it is necessary to start the *usrp_e3x0_network_mode* executable on the device.
In order to start the executable please log into your device either via SSH or serial console(see \ref e3x0_first_boot) and type
