Appendix A: Ping IP Address
The ping (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 whether or not
Internet camera is installed or if the IP address conflicts with any other device
over the network.
If you want to make sure the IP address of Internet 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 Internet
camera.
The replies, as illustrated below, will provide an explanation to the problem.
If you want to detect any other device that conflicts with the IP address of
Internet camera, you also can utilize the ping command but you must
disconnect the Internet camera from the network first.
