product are located on different subnets, you will not be able to set the IP a ddress. Contact your
network administrator to obtain an IP address.

by another device
Disconnect the Axis product from the network. Run the Ping command (in a Command/DOS
window, type ping and the IP address of the product:
•Ifyoureceive:Reply from <IP address>: bytes=32; time=10...
this means that the IP address may already be in use by another device on the network.
Obtain a new IP address from the network administrator and re insta ll the product.
•Ifyoureceive:Request timed out, this means that the IP address is available for
use with the Axis product. C heck all cabling and reinstall the product.
