Connecting to the Snap 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 18000 using the default server name, DHCP-assigned address (shown on the LCD), or the Snap Server Manager (SSM) utility. Use the server name/IP address 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. To Connect to a Snap Server Using the Server Name or IP Address Using the server name requires that name resolution services (via WINS, DNS, or an equivalent service) be operational. 1 Read the IP address or server name from the LCD display on the front of the server. 2 In a Web browser, enter the following URL: http://SNAPnnnnnn (where SNAPnnnnnn is the server name) or http://1.2.3.4 (where 1.2.3.4 is the IP address displayed on the LCD) 3 Press Enter.
