Problems setting the IP address
The device is located on
a different subnet
If the IP address intended for the device and the IP address of the computer used to
access the device are located on different subnets, you cannot set the IP address.
Contact your network administrator to obtain an IP address.
The IP address is being
used by another device
Disconnect the Axis device from the network. Run the ping command (in a
Command/DOS window, type ping and the IP address of the device):
• If you receive: 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 reinstall the device.
• If you receive: Request timed out, this means that the IP address is
available for use with the Axis device. Check all cabling and reinstall the
device.
Possible IP address
conflict with another
device on the same
subnet
The static IP address in the Axis device is used before the DHCP server sets a
dynamic address. This means that if the same default static IP address is also used
by another device, there may be problems accessing the device.
The device can’t be accessed from a browser
Can’t log in When HTTPS is enabled, ensure that the correct protocol (HTTP or HTTPS) is used
when attempting to log in. You may need to manually type http or https in the
browser’s address field.
If the password for the root account is lost, the device must be reset to the factory
default settings. See .
The IP address has been
changed by DHCP
IP addresses obtained from a DHCP server are dynamic and may change. If the IP
address has been changed, use AXIS IP Utility or AXIS Device Manager to locate the
device on the network. Identify the device using its model or serial number, or by
the DNS name (if the name has been configured).
If required, a static IP address can be assigned manually. For instructions, go to
axis.com/support.
Certificate error when
using IEEE 802.1X
For authentication to work properly, the date and time settings in the Axis device
must be synchronized with an NTP server. Go to System > Date and time.
The browser is not
supported
See for a list of recommended browsers.
The device is accessible locally but not externally
