Use the button `Builder` at the top of the Quasar application to start the client configuration. In the `Connection Settings` tab it is important to choose the same port as previously chosen in step 3.

Alternatively you can enter the IP (v4 or v6) of the server. Click `Add Host` to add a host to the list of available hosts which the client will try to connect to in a round-robin fashion. It is also possible to add more than one host. A complete list of all client settings can be found here.
