I have connected DS-2CD2032-I camera to Cisco 3550 PoE switch and try to ping and check the connectivity the IP camera. The camera connected switch port was continuously flapping. During that flapping I have observed that the camera IR LED were ON and OFF.
Then I connected camera directly to my PC, using IP 192.0.0.66 in PC side and provide 12V external power to camera. Then I used "PING" command to check the connectivity. It shows, after 5 - 10 destination unreachable messages, one success message (reply from 192.0.0.64).
During these test, I have used all possible cable combinations. T568A straight-through, T568B straight-through and T568B cross-over.
As I realized, this seems to be issue with Network port in the camera ?
Have anyone face this issue ?, If any one know how to correct this issue ?
