Installing a New Version of NI-XNET To Older LabVIEW Can Break I/O Control DialogsNI-XNET (full version) and the NI-XNET Runtime Engine include the four most recent versions of the XNET LabVIEW driver library. If you build an application with a version of LabVIEW that is more than four years old, after you install a new version of NI-XNET your deployable installer will not include support for NI-XNET.
Workaround: Do not install a new version of NI-XNET to use with a version of LabVIEW that is four years old or older.

A PHY can be put into low power mode when a PXIe-8520 link partner is not low-power capableWhen a
PXIe-8520 is configured to disable sleep capability, a paired link partner can
still initiate a TC10 sleep request and enter a low-power sleep state while the
paired PXIe-8520 port remains awake. This behavior differs from the existing
behavior seen with the PXIe-8523, where disabling sleep capability on a port
correctly prevents the paired link partner from entering a sleep state when
both PHYs on the link cannot sleep.
Workaround: Synchronizing
sleep capability states between paired ports should be handled explicitly from
the user application.
