Windows 10: Delivery Optimisation for networks which use Public IP Address

I have configured Delivery Optimisation for my LAN desktop computers. These computers have public IP Addresses. I have set the download mode to LAN. According to this article https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/deployment/do/waas-delivery-optimization-faq, they should identify the peers as internet peers.If I run Get-DeliveryOptimizationPerfSnap, it returns no Lanconnections. Is there another way I could troubleshoot for Public IP Addresses to see there Internet peers according to the Microsoft doc https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/deployment/do/waas-delivery-optimization

Finding IP address

Hello,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

I suggest you to follow the steps mentioned below to find printer’s IP address:

1. Type Devices and Printers in the Windows search bar.
   
2. Select on the printer and click on
   Manage.
   
3. Click on the Ports tab.
   You will be able to find printer’s IP address under the ‘Ports’ tab.
   

Few printers also have a “Test print” option on the printer. When you print a test page from network printer, the page shows the IP address along with other details.

Note: If it is set on DHCP mode the IP address will constantly change.
The IP address is assigned automatically by your router using a protocol called DHCP.

Hope it helps.
