IP address, either manually or via an automated network service (DHCP). Depending on the
network, select one of the following procedures:
• Automatic Installation using DHCP, on page 6.
• Manual Installation using AXIS IP Utility, on page 7.
• Manual Installation using ARP and Ping in Windows, on page 8.
• Manual Installation using ARP and Ping in UNIX/Linux, on page 9.
Notes:
• The AXIS 292 has the default IP address 192.168.0.90
• DHCP is enabled by default

Automatic Installation using DHCP

DHCP is enabled by default on the AXIS 292. If a DHCP server is available on the network,
follow these instructions to install the AXIS 292.
1. Make sure that the power, network and video cables are connected, see Connecting the
power and network cables, on page 5 for instructions.
2. The IP address will be displayed on the TV monitor during startup.
3. Start a Web browser on a computer connected to the network and enter the IP address in
the Address/Location field. Press Enter.
Enter the password for the root user (administrator). See Setting the password, on page 6.
4.
5. The installation is now complete. Please refer to the AXIS 292 User's Manual and the
online help files for descriptions of the available functionality.

Setting the password

The password will need to be changed in order to prevent unauthorized tampering. The
default user name is root and the default password is pass.
1. Locate the AXIS 292 on the network. See Accessing the AXIS 292, on page 10.
2. Click Maintenance on the overview page for the AXIS 292.
3. Under Server Maintenance, enter the new password and then confirm the new password.
4. If the password is lost, the AXIS 292 must be reset to the default settings. Refer to
Factory default settings, on page 11, for instructions.
Notes:
• If the monitor displays the default IP address (192.168.0.90), DHCP probably failed. In
this case, please proceed to one of the manual installation procedures on the following
pages.
