Hello! Looking for help on establishing a connection path to a L61 controller thru ENBT gateways. I have already connected to a PLC5 via DHRIO in slot 0 so I know I am close but cannot get to the L61. Here's is what I have so far that (that is not working) 1,2,10.10.10.50,1,1,0 (backplane,port,target,backplane,port,target) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/1/6/16309e5c2850f57e9ebb8273740a3510b9dddc09.png) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/b/e/be8aec114201b9ef3002015136444afcec6c511d.png) ---

Try `1,2,3,10.10.10.50,1,0` or `1,2,4,10.10.10.50,1,0` In my new driver it would be `slot 2 port 3 10.10.10.50 slot 0` or `slot 2 port 4 10.10.10.50 slot 0` fwiw. ---

Your screenshot highlights a node under 10.10.10.11, not 10.10.10.50 - intentional? ---

@pturmel I did try both of them but didn't work. @Kevin.Herron I guess I'm a bit confused here. 10.10.10.50 is the IP of the 2nd ENBT card (slot 2) Then when browsing under that card, the controller is under 10.10.10.11 (slot 0) ---

I highlighted the L61 controller I'm trying to get the tags. Thanks for the help! ---

Whoops! Right. Where I showed `10.10.10.50`, use `10.10.10.11`. No reference to the first ENBT's address is required. You are reaching it by its slot address, not its IP address. ---

tried both these but didn't work: 1,2,4,10.10.10.11,1,0 1,2,3,10.10.10.11,1,0 did another picture as it's still fuzzy on the comms path. First hits 10.88.50.19, then go to the 2nd ENBT card (10.10.10.50), then goes to 10.10.10.11 which the L61 resides ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/8/0/80a2462bac184ca5e2a1ae8a2887d419589989fc.png) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/a/f/afb6cb8f33292c104dca02116745a34cef7f558a.png) ---

this is what the drive looks like now but not connecting -- trying both 1,2,3 and 1,2,4 to start ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/b/c/bcb2c01ad7b4ae8c0cd1ccd65481c2bb27943f95.png) ---

got it working! Final answer: 1,2,2,10.10.10.11,1,0 with the host name 10.88.50.19 ---

Well, I guessed wrong that port A would have #3 or #4. I just looked it up in the EDS file, and it is port #2. {Backplanes are always port #1.} So: `1,2,2,10.10.10.11,1,0` ---
