Manual way with existing programs

In addition to the provided installer program, some common network tools including ARP and

PING can be used to install Video Server. Open a DOS command prompt window to perform

the manual installation.

First, type arp –s “assigned IP address” “Ethernet address” to add an entity in the system’s

name table. The Ethernet address is identical to the serial number of Video Server and should

be typed in the appropriate format, with every two characters separated by a hyphen like

“uu-vv-ww-xx-yy-zz”.

Once a name entity is added, type ping "assigned IP address” to invite the new Video Server. If

it replies, that means Video Server has accepted the assigned IP address and is ready for

access. The first several ping requests may fail during the self-configuration period of Video

Server.
