After the server is powered on and connected to the Internet, it starts to start. After the server’s normal starts to light up, you can find the IP of the server. You can use the “show IP” software to find the server

IP as follows:

(1) Download software: http://www.nano.cn/download/ShowIP.exe

(2) Double-click “show IP” to open the software.

(3) Short press the “IP Report” button on the server for 1 second and release it.

(4) The server IP information is fed back on the PC, as shown below:

Note: The server and PC must be in the same network segment, otherwise the IP information returned by the server cannot be received.

2.2 Enter the Server Backstage Management System

(1) After finding the IP of the server, enter the obtained IP address in the browser (Google is recommended), press Enter to enter the server login interface, and enter the default administrator account and password: root

(2) press “Login” to enter the Server Backstage Management System as follows:

3. Server Settings

Click the "Miner Configuration" interface of "Configuration" to set the "Mining Pool" and "Network"

3.1 Fill in the Mining Pool Information

Note: This manual takes the “poolin” as an example.

ETH mining address: stratum+tcp://eth.ss.poolin.one:443

（1）Select "Pool Configuration" and fill in the Mining Pool Information

(1-1) The "Url" in "Mining Pool 1" is filled with the ETH Poolin mining link address:

stratum+tcp://eth.ss.poolin.one:443

(1-2) "Worker" in "Pool 1" fill in "ipollomini.001"; "ipollomini" is a custom "sub-account" in the corresponding Mining Pool account; the number suffixed with ".001" is the number used to distinguish the server;).

Note: For customization such as numbers or letter combinations, use English periods to separate them, only modify the corresponding characters, and do not increase or decrease spaces and punctuation)

Note: In order to prevent “Pool 1” from being disconnected, causing the server to not work, it is recommended to set “Pool 2” and “Pool 3” at the same time, so as to ensure that the system will automatically switch to “Pool 2” or "Pool 3” for normal operation when “Pool 1” goes offline.

3.2 Network Settings
