How do I find my IP cameras that are on a switch?

Plug a computer (that has an ethernet port or a USB to Ethernet adapter) into the switch that the cameras are in. If they don’t come up (while being in DHCP) in your PC go to the control panel , network and internet, then go to network and sharing center and click on the ethernet hyperlink and click on properties. Then double click on Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) change from ‘Obtain IP address automatically’ to ‘Use the follow IP address’ and change it to match the default IP scheme of the cameras. Open the IP tool for that matches the series of your camera.
