Appendix B: 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 PT Internet Camera installed or if the IP address conflicts with
any other devices over the network.
If you want to make sure the IP address of PT Internet Camera, utilize the PING command as
follows:
Start a DOS window.
Type ping x.x.x.x, where x.x.x.x is the IP address of the PT Internet Camera.
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 PT Internet Camera,
also can utilize the PING command but you must disconnect the PT Internet Camera from the
network first.
