i was told by one of LAN Admins that a security camera (installed by another firm) has a duplicate IP. I'm asking to get this guy back to show us what he saw where. In the meantime, is there a way to locate a duplicate?

ITS SIMPLE..
SIMPLY SHUT OFF THIS MACHINE & AGAIN PING THIS IP ADDRESS

i wasn't clear. this security tech left a message for our guy that he saw some message about a duplicate ip but didn't explain where he it saw nor what device. I made the obvious request for him to explain what he saw where. Long story but our guy has been replaced so the new guy is asking about this.
so, when you don't know where the device is, is there some method, tool to find it. btw, our dhcp server is netware; we do not have active directory

There may be more than one way to do it but here's one of the ways you may be able to identify the device(s) with the duplicate IP address.
The router, that's the gateway for the subnet, may log a duplicate address error message. Do a 'show ip arp

is there a way to clear the whole table since i don't know what the address is? The syntax is looking for an address

Hi
Yes, you don't say what your device is so try
clear arp
clear arp-cache
Note that this will remove all the arp entries which will give a slight performance hit.
