Hello, I’ve been trying to setup communication with S7400 PLC but although rack/slot/IP are correct, connection status shows it as Disconnected. CP-443 receives request from Ignition Rx (flashing) but Tx not blinking. Attached log from TRACE\> Any ideas folks?

Did you set a "local address" in the device configuration? If specified, it must be one of the gateway's own local IP addresses. Don't set that field at all if your gateway doesn't have multiple IP addresses in that same subnet. ---
