Important!

Note:

When you execute the ping command for the first time, you will experience a significantly longer

response time than usual.

Using ARP in UNIX and OS/2

To download the IP address and verify the communication, type the following commands:

Example:

The host will return ‘192.16.253.80 is alive’,

or some similar message to indicate that the

address has been set and the communication is established.

Note:

When you execute the ping command for the first time, you may experience a significantly longer

response time than usual.

Using RARP in UNIX

Follow these steps to use the RARP method in UNIX:

1. Append the following line to your Ethernet Address table. This is typically performed using the

command

/etc/ethers

Example:

2. If necessary, update your host table and alias name databases as described required by your system.

3. If it is not already running, start the RARP daemon. This is typically done using the command

rarpd -a.

4. Restart the AXIS 2400 to download the IP address.

Windows 95 only: When using the Windows 95 implementation of ARP, change the first line to:

arp -s <camera IP address> <Ethernet address> <w95host IP address>

, where

is the IP

address of your Windows 95 host.

Example:

arp -s 192.16.253.80 00-40-8c-10-00-86 192.16.253.81

ping 192.16.253.80

arp -s <camera IP address> <Ethernet address> temp

ping <camera IP address>

arp -s 192.16.253.80 00:40:8c:10:00:86 temp

ping 192.16.253.80
