# Software Post-Installation Configuration

# Establishing Connection to the Server

This section shows the required configuration to utilize the Open iT software in a macOS machine.

Open a terminal.
Execute the following command:
```
sudo /usr/local/openit/bin/serverurl <server url>
```
where server URL is the Open iT Core Reporter Uniform Resource Locator following the format: http(s)://<servername>:<port_number>.
- <servername> - hostname of the machine with Core Server installation
- <port_number> - port number used by the Apache web service; this is specified upon Core Server installation
Example
```
sudo /usr/local/openit/bin/serverurl https://hostname:8080
```

Running this command outputs a warning message if the server URL is not available or accessible. Enter y to continue and provide the server URL at a later time or n to exit the setup.
