Axis print servers... and they did that even 5 years ago. On 12/6/05, neil () ncsconsulting com <neil () ncsconsulting com> wrote:
As a related note, i was working with an IP addressable network print server a number of years ago that had an interesting option to configure its IP address: you could setup a static ARP entry in your laptop then ping the device to assign it an IP address. The device's MAC was stamped on the back and once it acquired the IP address from the ping packet it would assign that address and you could connect to it (from the local network of course) for more detailed configuration. Also, once the address had been assigned you couldn't assign another address without resetting it (using a pin to press a tiny hidden switch). At time (guessing 8-10 years ago) I thought that was a neat trick but can't for the life of me remember the name of the device. Could be your camera also does that my design. -neil ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Audit your website security with Acunetix Web Vulnerability Scanner: Hackers are concentrating their efforts on attacking applications on your website.
