C. Trouble Shooting

This appendix provides useful information to help you to resolve any difficulty you might have
with your NETWORK VIDEO SERVER. Fault symptoms, possible causes and remedial actions
are provided within a quick reference table.

PINGing your IP Address

By sending a packet to the specified address and waiting for a reply, the PING (Packet Internet
Groper) can determine whether a specific IP address is accessible; it also provides a particularly
useful method for confirming addressing conflicts with your NETWORK VIDEO SERVER on the
network.

Having disconnected your NETWORK VIDEO SERVER, follow the instructions below in
association with Symptoms, Possible Cause and Remedial Actions, on next page, and run the PING
utility to troubleshoot TCP/IP problems on your network.

① Start a DOS window
② Type ping x.x.x.x, where x.x.x.x is the IP address of NETWORK VIDEO SERVER
③ The subsequent replies will provide an explanation as to the case as to the cause of the

problem. Replies can be interpreted as defined in the table below:


PING Reply Interpretation and recommendation
bytes = 32 time = xx ms

The camera responds to PING commands correctly.
