1. Make sure each device is assigned a unique IP address.
2. Use DHCP servers to assign IP addresses to devices.
3. Ensure proper configuration of routers and switches, so that they don‘t create duplicate IP assignments.
4. Scan the network using an IP scanner tool to detect duplicate IPs.
5. Use a MAC address scanner to find the exact device with the duplicate IP.
6. Disable the erroneous device to free up the IP address for use.
7. Once the problematic device has been identified, reconfigure the IP assignment accordingly.
8. Finally, run another scan to ensure that the IP address is no longer duplicated.
