Detecting network cameras ?


Is there a package that will sniff out network cameras and allow you to view what they are seeing? Even a win32 program would suffice.



Coincidences just shouldn't happen that often.


Thanks

No.

All the camera finder programs in Windows search by MAC address. For example, all Axis cameras start with the MAC 00:40:8C. You could run wireshark/ethereal to search for MAC addresses that fit the pattern of being an IP camera, but even once you have that, the cameras should still be password protected.

Peace,
JimBass
