2 Ethernet controller installed in system - selection in MAX, which should be used

[DBD]

Hello,

I´ve two Ethernet controllers installed on my system, one in the PC, one in the PXI-Chassis with an MXI-Controller.

The controller in the PC is for the company network, the one in the PXI-Chassis is for all my UUTs to be tested.

Is it possible to select explicit the one in the PXI Controller when installing a new network device?

(If I deactivate the company controller, my device is working in MAX otherwise the wrong controller is used

to search the "local" device.

Thanks

Robert

Hi Robert,

deactivating the primary network seems to be a solution for this.

Else you can change the priority of your controllers and make the other one default.

Please have a look at this:
