ADB devices list empty with wireless debugging

I have Android 11 on my phone, I have setup Wireless Debugging, and in the list of Paired Devices my computer shows up. However, when I run adb devices -l on my computer, the list of devices is empty.

Why am I seeing an empty list. Is there something extra that I need to do?

Here is the device:

Step 01: turn on wireless debugging

Step 02: click on "Pair device with pairing code" Step 02 outcome

Step 03: in cmd enter "adb pair ipaddress:hostname" (the ip address will be displayed on the screen after opening window in the previous step)

Step 04: enter the pairing code displayed on the android screen to the cmd

Step 05: in cmd enter "adb connect ipaddress:hostname"

(this ip address is diffrent from the previous one 
{displayed on wireless debugging window, not in the popup window})

wireless debugging window

Step 06: now adb devices should show your device

Happy Hacking

It says unknown command adb pair Saw the help there is no pair command listed in the menu

Instead go to platform-tools folder in my case ~/Android/Sdk/platform-tools from here you can execute ./adb and then in the help you can see there the pair option ./adb pair <ipaddress>:<port> will prompt for pairing code

Then you are sucessfully connected

You will need to connect to the device before it becomes visible in adb devices -l. You must run adb connect ipaddress:port, in your case adb connect 192.168.1.123:37457. Docs
