Unable to find network devices with Siemens Tia portal

Hi all,
Since Mac OS Big Sur we experience some issues with connecting to new Siemens PLC devices over ethernet.
Siemens uses an ISO protocol once a netwerk device has no internet connection, but for some reason this is blocked somewhere between Mac OS and Parallels.
When I connect my USB network adapter directly to Parallels there seems no issue.
When it is connected through my Mac and share network adapter there are no devices found.

There is no problem once we have the same setup with Mac OS Catalina.
Currently using Parallels 17, but we also had these issues on Parallels 16.

Can anyone help me?
Thank you,
Pjotr

Hi Pjotr,
I hope that all is well, I am experiencing the same issues with TIA Portal and RSLinx inside my VM when using WIFI. I can ping the devices with no issues but the PLC programming software will not connect over Wifi (OK via LAN).
Would it please be possible to let me know what Wifi adapter you used to overcome this problem? I have just purchased and installed a Wifi adapter and I cannot get it to see any SSIDs on the wireless network, so maybe it is not compatible.

Many Thanks,

Steve

Hello @StephenV4, please run VM with bridged network. Please follow the KB article https://kb.parallels.com/8978 to fix the VM issue. Thanks, Parallels Team.

I have the same problem. The solution that GampaA@Parallels posted did not work for me.
 
Same Problem here. I've tried Win10 too but not working. I hope parallels can fix this so I can use my new M1 machine productive.

Maybe a USB-Network card directly connected to the vm will help but haven't tried that.

WinCC Unified Simulation also does nit work because of de missing IIS in Win11 ARM.
 
This issue is not a Parallels Desktop bug. This is a Mac OS Big Sur and Monterey problem. Because in VMWare Fusion, the search for a controller via Profinet also does not work.
I checked with Wireshark, and found out that Mac OS mangles the PLC response when searching through the Accessible Device. Mac OS Big Sur gets the correct answer from the PLC, and Parallels Desktop gets a garbled answer from the PLC.
I had to go back to Mac OS Catalina. I installed Parallels Desktop 17 and the problem went away. The TIA Portal works great.

Yes, I tested this method under Mac OS Big Sur. He works. But I don't really like it, since the settings of network adapters are constantly getting lost.

Okay, for me it is not working.
I can not find any devices? Which network card do you use? What are your settings?

Does Mac OS Big Sur evan block those connections?
 
Hi. I've tried for a while to find a solution and i finally got connection between my MacBook Pro 14´(M1 pro) in windows 11 with parallels and my Siemens Logo!.
1. Connect your Logo! via ethernet adapter (I´m using a UGREEN ethernet to usb c adapter)
2. Change the Network configuration in parallels to Bridged Network
3. Restart Parallels
4. Change ipv4 configurantion inside windows 11 (in parallels) to manual and inserte the above:
ip adress: 192.168.0.20 (any number available excetp the one being use by the Logo!)
subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
5. Turn off ipv6 in windows configurations.
6. Head to Siemnes Logo! Confort and select: transfer >> pc to Logo! >> ethernet

It worked for me i dont realy know how

Hi,
Are you currently running Tia Portal V17? I am using MacBook Pro M2 14', I managed to install the Tia Portal V17 without any problem, but when I open/create a project and click 'project view' Tia portal just crashes for some reason. Have you had same issues by any chance?

This did not work for me.

What version of Logo Soft was you using ?
 
Hello everyone,

I have same problem; I am using MacBook Pro M3 and M2 Pro with macOS Sonoma 14.5 and TIA PORTAL v19 with Parallels V19. I connect the S7-1200 PLC via Belkin USB/Ethernet adapter. I can write code on TIA V19, I can ping to the PLC but I can not reach PLC with TIA that you can see the problem in picture. I do not understand the reason of problem. Is there any solution about this? Please help :(

Hello everyone. I think I have found a solution to the problem of detecting Siemens controllers. I have done many different tests and finally found a setting that allowed me to access the search for Siemens devices in TIA Portal via LAN.

Go to the menu "System Settings" => "Privacy & Security" => "Developer Tools" and add Parallels Desktop in the window that opens. Then start the virtual machine and check the search for Siemens devices.

Please, whoever tries it, let me know the results, did it work for you?

Software specifications: MacOS 15.0. Parallels Desktop PRO 19.4.1 (and after upgrade 20.0.1).

Tried that, still having connectivity issues. Macbook M1 Pro, Sonoma 14.1.1, Parallels 20.1.0, Windows 11 TIA V17 Pro, using a Realtek USB-C gigabit ethernet adapter, can connect to and program this S7-1200 PLC using same network cable switch and setup with TIA V13 and V15 on an older Intel MBP so I know the PLC and network are good, can see PLC at 192.168.0.1 using advanced IP scanner in Windows but no luck getting TIA to see it on "accessible devices" tab or detect PLC if I start a project with an unknown S7-1200 on the M1 machine

Installed Wireshark and can confirm I'm also seeing very seeing different waveforms between the USB ethernet adapter device and the VM ethernet
 
Did anybody found a solution for this problem?

I also can find any PLCs using the scanning function in TIA (MacOS 26.1 (25B78); Parallels Pro Version 26.1.1 (57288); TIA V16)
