Using the Initial Setup Wizard Using the Initial Setup Wizard The first time you connect to a SnapServer via the browser-based Administration Tool, the Initial Setup Wizard runs. The Initial Setup Wizard consists of several screens that allow you to change the server name, set the date and time, set the administrator password, configure TCP/IP settings for the primary Ethernet port (by default Ethernet1), and reclaim the snapshot space that is by default allotted on the volume. Server Name The default server name is SNAPnnnnnn, where nnnnnn is the server number. If desired, enter a unique server name of up to 15 alphanumeric characters. In addition to letters and numbers, you can also use a dash (-) between characters, but spaces are not allowed. Date/Time Settings The SnapServer time stamp applies when recording server activity in the event log (Monitor Menu), setting the create/modify time on a file, and when scheduling snapshot, antivirus, Snap EDR, or Server-to-Server Synchronization (preGuardianOS v4.2 licenses only) operations. Edit the settings according to local conditions. Note GuardianOS automatically adjusts for Daylight Saving Time, based on the selected time zone. Changing the Administration Password The default administrator user name is admin and the default password is also admin. To prevent unauthorized access to the SnapServer, enter a secure password immediately in the fields provided. Note A password must consist of 1 to 15 alphanumeric characters and is case sensitive. Gathering TCP/IP Addressing Information SnapServers are preset to acquire an IP address from a DHCP server. If you wish to assign a static IP instead, assemble the following information: • The IP address for the SnapServer (required) • The subnet mask (required) 16 SnapServer Administrator Guide
