Question

Scenario: Stingy IP Camera Suppose you arrive at work one morning to find a new service Ticket waiting in your inbox. The day before, two new surveillance IP cameras were installed outside a data closet in a newly renovated o²ce building. These IP cameras transmit their Feed over the network to the Security Department. Security is receiving the Feed From one camera with no problem. However, they’re not getting anything from the other camera. As Far as the security system is concerned, the camera doesn’t exist. After confirming the lack of data Feed in the monitoring program, you ping the camera but get no response. Knowing the camera is new, your next stop is the camera itself. Knowing as you do a little more exploration, here are some of the things you find: •The Feed From the other camera installed at the same Time on the same LAN is still coming through fine. •All the other nodes you’ve tested on that LAN are Fully Functional and responding to ping. •There are no errors reported on the LAN that hosts the security program. Why is the camera’s transmission not making it to the security program? Below are several possible resolutions. Select the best one and explain your reasoning: a. The Ethernet cable from the camera to the network is malfunctioning and should be replaced. b. The security program doesn’t recognize the authenticity of the camera’s data, so a static route should be configured from the camera to Security’s LAN. c. The switch for the cameras’ LAN is inadequate For the amount of tra²c on the LAN now that the new cameras have been added. ±he switch should be replaced with a more powerful device. d. The camera’s NIC is malfunctioning and should be replaced. e. ±he camera’s default gateway is misconfigured or unreachable and should be corrected. F. The Ethernet cable leading from the camera to the network is placed too closely to some nearby fluorescent lights, which is causing interference in the transmission. The cable should be relocated farther away From the lights. g. Power fluctuations in that building’s data closet are causing interment problems with the devices on that LAN. The UPS servicing that closet should be replaced.

Explanation / Answer

The best answer for the above question as per my knowledge is (B).

This problem occurs when you didn't change the default IP address of IP cameras. After you bought the IP cameras, all of them were configured with a same address. With reason of IP conflict, when two or more than two IP cameras connect to router, one camera can work perfectly fine, but the rest of cameras can't connect the network.

To solve this problem, you need to set a unique IP address for each of the cameras.

Hence, the security program doesn’t recognize the authenticity of the camera’s data, so a static route should be configured from the camera to Security’s LAN

Second reason can be the malfunctioning of the NIC.
