Change Hostname

When you first booted the JumpBox you assigned it a unique name on your network. By naming it something like "MyJumpBoxApp" you can more easily refer to it on your network and not worry about the IP address changing if you use DHCP. If you're hosting from a Mac, you can refer to it as "http://local.MyJumpBoxApp" and if hosting from a PC, "http://MyJumpBoxApp." This sequence of instructions will show you how to set a new hostname once you've already completed the initial configuration steps.

  1. Click the "Network" icon in the admin control panel.




  2. Set the new name as you wish it to appear on your network and click "Configure Hostname" to commit the change.




  3. You'll see a success message indicating that your new hostname has been set. You should now be able to access the JumpBox via this name in the URL.
