Hi everyone

I have two NICs in my Main workstation and my Render node. One nic is for 1 GbE, the other for 10 GbE. When I enable network rendering, both of my subnets are showing up in network settings but the render node is only showing up in the 1 GbE Network.

How can I tell the render node, that it should connect via the 10Gbe Nic?

Both machines can ping each other over both networks.

Thanks for your help!

I was able to solve the problem. I deactivated Windows Firewall on both machines and now it's running fine. I have to dig deeper to analyze the problem but for now, it works.
