Connecting to the Server for the First Time Connecting to the Server for the First Time Snap Servers are preset to acquire an IP address from a DHCP server. If no DHCP server is found on the network, the Snap Server defaults to an IP address of 10.10.10.10, and you may not be able to see the server on your network. You can discover a Snap Server using either the default server name or the Snap Server Manager (SSM) utility. Use the server name method if you are installing one Snap Server on the network. Use SSM if you are installing two or more Snap Servers, or if your network does not have a DHCP server. Tip The LCD panel on the Snap Server 14000 and 18000 displays its default server name and IP address. To Connect Using the Server Name This procedure requires that name resolution services (via WINS or an equivalent service) be operational. 1 Find the server name. The default server name is SNAPnnnnnn, where nnnnnn is the server number. For example, the name of a Snap Server with a server number of 610019 is SNAP610019. The server number is a unique, numerics-only string that appears on a label affixed to the inside of your Snap Server. To view the label, remove the front bezel (4200 and 4500) or read the LCD display (14000 and 18000). 2 Connect to the server. In a Web browser, enter the following URL: http://SNAPnnnnnn (where nnnnnn is the server number) Press Enter. The Web View screen opens. 3 Log into the Administration Tool. Click the administration link, and in the login dialog box, enter admin as the user name and admin as the password, and then click OK. 4 Complete the Initial Setup Wizard. For instructions for using the Initial Setup Wizard, see page 8. To Connect to a Snap Server Using Snap Server Manager 1 Install and launch Snap Server Manager. Install and launch Snap Server Manager (see page 5) on a machine residing on the same network segment as your Snap Server(s). Upon startup, Snap Server Manager displays the IP address of each Snap Server on its local network segment. Chapter 1 Administrative Overview 7

Administrative Overview

Connecting to the Server for the First Time
Snap Servers are preset to acquire an IP address from a DHCP server. If no DHCP
server is found on the network, the Snap Server defaults to an IP address of
10.10.10.10, and you may not be able to see the server on your network. You can
discover a Snap Server using either the default server name or the Snap Server
Manager (SSM) utility. Use the server name method if you are installing one Snap
Server on the network. Use SSM if you are installing two or more Snap Servers, or if
your network does not have a DHCP server.
Tip
The LCD panel on the Snap Server 14000 and 18000 displays its default server
name and IP address.
To Connect Using the Server Name
This procedure requires that name resolution services (via WINS or an equivalent
service) be operational.

For example, the name of a Snap Server with a server number of 610019 is
SNAP610019. The server number is a unique, numerics-only string that appears
on a label affixed to the inside of your Snap Server. To view the label, remove the
front bezel (4200 and 4500) or read the LCD display (14000 and 18000).
2
Connect to the server.
In a Web browser, enter the following URL:
http://SNAP

(where
nnnnnn
is the server number)
Press
Enter
. The Web View screen opens.

For instructions for using the Initial Setup Wizard, see page 8.
To Connect to a Snap Server Using Snap Server Manager
1
Install and launch Snap Server Manager.
Install and launch Snap Server Manager (see page 5) on a machine residing on the
same network segment as your Snap Server(s). Upon startup, Snap Server
Manager displays the IP address of each Snap Server on its local network
segment.
