    b) macOS: Open standard "Terminal" application and enter ssh -l root -p 22 <camera IP>

2. Go to "tmp" folder: cd /tmp/

3. Download Prism Connect package: curl -k -L -o prism-connect-axis-s2l-2.10.0.gz https://app.prism.com/download/axis-s2l/2.10.0/

3. Extract Prism Connect package: tar -zxvf /tmp/prism-connect-axis-s2l-2.10.0.gz prism -C /root/sd

4. Authenticate: export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/root/sd/prism/lib

5. Go to "prism" dir : cd /root/sd/prism

6. Enter the token:  ./prismsetup --password <TOKEN> --config /root/sd/prism/prismconnect.conf --server `cat /usr/local/packages/prismconnect/info/server`
