Can't connect to Sybase SQL

Hello,

 

i'm trying to connect to a sybase database which is running in our local network. I can connect with PHP, Sybase Central etc. etc. but not with PowerBI. If i enter the correct server name it says no ip adress found, if i enter the ip + port it says "database server not found".

 

I've tried:

 

servername

domain name\servername

ip adress, port\servername

ip adress, port

 

and nothing worked.

 

Can anyone help me out?

How did you create a local ODBC , can you please elaborate your solution.

I connected to the server using ODBC and I can see a list of the databases on that server, but I can not see the tables in the database. What do I need to change?
