Keep thinking about it Bryan, if you want. I am happy to have any ideas or suggestions.
The are several "Moxa" branded 16 port Managed switches in the network and I am unsure of the routeing of the ethernet cable. I don't think it is a duplicate IP Address issue as I used the same ethernet connection with our test FW3.0 S7-1200 and it was set to the same IP address as the non communicating FW4.1 S7-1200.
Unfortunately the managed switches are "password protected" and the password is unknown!
Possibly over the Christmas shutdown period and no production, I can investigate cabling and ethernet connections further.
Please feel free to share any more thoughts you may have.
Thanks
Woolie
