Hi all, does anyone know of an issue with Boot-P not working on Windows 11? Before you ostracize me, it was not my choice to have a Windows 11 laptop.
So basically I'm trying to assign an IP to a Micro820 PLC and boot-p is not able to assign an IP at all. I'm aware of the usual issues with Rockwell's boot-p tool and it's inability to disable DHCP, but in this case I can't even assign an IP to the device. I have also tried using Phoenix Contact's boot-p tool (my preferred method) to no avail. After spending an hour messing with it, my colleague was able to use his Windows 10 laptop and address it with boot-p no problem. Does anyone have some light they can shed on this issue for me?
