Server

Network

Learn how to manage the server network, change MAC addresses, configure IPv4 & IPv6 settings, and control routing under Network.

1. Settings

Here, you can see the MAC address used to access your server’s network interface, and you have the option to change the network driver.

 

This driver is used on the host system to make the corresponding network interface available to your server. However, certain operating systems may require a driver that differs from the recommended "virtio" driver. Select the desired driver from the drop-down list, then click OK to confirm. The server must be restarted for the change to take effect.
