Issue Details

  • UDP Multicast - Receiver.vi from UDP Multicast example project is not receiving any data if the UDP Multicast - Sender.vi is run on another computer in the same local network, although I have specified the same multicast address.

Solution

  1. Open Windows PowerShell as administrator.
  2. Run “Get-NetConnectionProfile” to list active network connections.
  3. Run "Set-NetConnectionProfile -Name "NetworkName" -NetworkCategory Private” to set the network profile to private and disable multicast filtering.
