"bcdedit /dbgsettings NET HOSTIP:123.123.123.123 PORT:50123" is not valid


To enable kernel debugging using LAN (I'm using appropriate LAN-board), according to MSDN, I should type:

bcdedit /dbgsettings NET HOSTIP:123.123.123.123 PORT:50123

But I get an error:

The debugger type specified is not valid.
...

How come (Win7x64) ??


Solution

  • According to the document "Setting Up Kernel-Mode Debugging over a Network Cable Manually": https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/hardware/hh439346.aspx

    the target computer must be running Windows 8 or later
