Modern Windows (Windows 10 and above) has removed Network Binding Order from the network config. See the "Modern Windows" note below. If a server PC has multiple network adapters, the IP Address Command Centre uses to send to controllers is determined by the **Adapter Binding Order**. Command Centre will use the IP Address of the **primary adapter**. ## How CC resolves the server IP Command Centre resolves this address by **pinging the HOST name of the PC**. The IP Address that is returned is sent to the controller as the server IP. From v6 of Command Centre onwards, every time the FT Services start they resolve the PC's IP Address. To list all IP Addresses in use on a PC: ``` ipconfig /all ``` > **Note:** The order of adapters in `ipconfig /all` output does **not** reflect the Binding Order. *** ## How to change the Binding Order of Network Adapters ### Windows XP and Windows 2003 1. Click **Start** > **Run**, type `ncpa.cpl`, and click **OK**. Available connections appear in the LAN and High-Speed Internet section. 2. On the **Advanced** menu, click **Advanced Settings**, then click the **Adapters and Bindings** tab. 3. In the Connections area, select the connection to move higher in the list. Use the arrow buttons to move the connection. > **Note:** The Adapters and Bindings tab lists connections in the order in which the connections are accessed by network services. This order reflects the order in which TCP/IP (or the next available protocol) is bound to the network adapters. ### Windows 7 and Windows 2008 1. Go to **Control Panel** > **Network and Internet** (or **Network and Sharing Centre**) > **Change adapter settings**. Or: Start > Run > `ncpa.cpl` > OK. The Network Connections window opens. 2. Press **Alt**. A hidden menu appears beneath the location bar. 3. Under the **Advanced** menu, click **Advanced Settings**. 4. You can now see the order of preference in which the connections are accessed by network services. 5. Use **Up** and **Down** buttons to move a network connection. This changes the priority of connections. *** ## Modern Windows (Windows 10 and above) In Windows 10, network binding order has been **removed from the OS**. You cannot change the binding order in the network config GUI. If a customer is on Windows 10 with multiple adapters and CC is resolving the wrong IP, contact local IT. The solution path is either: 1. Disable the unwanted adapter. 2. Configure the **Use different IP for Server** option in Command Centre (see [Use Cases for Using Different IP Addresses for Server](/knowledge-hub/products/cc-hardware/controllers/controller-6000/configure/controller-6000-use-cases-different-ip-for-server.md)). For wireless adapters specifically, see [Wireless Adaptor on the Server](/knowledge-hub/products/cc-hardware/controllers/controller-6000/configure/controller-6000-wireless-adaptor-on-server.md). *** 🔗 **Related** * [Assigning a Controller an IP address](/knowledge-hub/products/cc-hardware/controllers/controller-6000/configure/controller-6000-assigning-a-controller.md).

GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com. ## Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question. Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters: ``` GET https://help.security.gallagher.com/knowledge-hub/products/cc-hardware/controllers/controller-6000/configure/controller-6000-command-centre-server.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
