Chapter 8. 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 the device installed or if the IP address conflicts with any
other device over the network.

If you want to make sure the IP address of the device, utilize the PING command as follows:

z

Launch a Command Prompt.

z

Type ping x.x.x.x, where x.x.x.x is the IP address of the device. For example, ping

192.168.0.20

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 Network Camera, also
can utilize the PING command but you must disconnect the Camera from the network first.
