Appendix B: PING IP Address
The PING (stands for Packet Internet Groper) command is used to detect whether a specific IP
address is accessible by sending a packet to the specific address and waiting for a reply. It’s also
a very useful tool to confirm IP camera installed or if the IP address conflicts with any other
devices over the network.
If you want to make sure the IP address of IP camera, utilize the PING command as follows:
z
Start a DOS window.
z
Type ping x.x.x.x, where x.x.x.x is the IP address of the IP camera.
The replies, as illustrated below, will provide an explanation to the problem.
If you want to detect any other devices conflicts with the IP address of IP camera, also can utilize
the PING command but you must disconnect the IP camera from the network first.
