Page 40: Reference
Reference Troubleshooting This section provides useful information to help you to resolve any difficulty you might have with your LG IP device. Fault symptoms, pos- sible causes and remedial actions are provided here. IP Setting problems • ARP/Ping: Disconnect and reconnect the power to the network camera. The device should get the ip within 2 minutes. • Ping your camera: Open the command prompt on your computer, type ping with the IP address of the network device. The reply obtained by this command provides explanation for the cause of the problem. - Page 41 Accessing camera external to the local network • Firewall Protection: Check for the internet firewall with the system administrator, either he has to do port forwarding or modify the DMZ function on the router. • Default router needed: Check if you need configure the router settings. Sporadic network performance • Network Switches or hubs used may be of the lower configuration and the load on this may not meet the required conditions of our network camera.
- Page 42 • If we obtain lower frame rate than set we need to check from the system administrator for sufficient bandwidth available or reduce the number of applications running on the client computer. • If the client PC’s are unable to access the multicast stream, check with the system administrator for the use of a valid multicast address or check if the router is supporting multicasting.
