## 2. Building a Client ## 4. Building a Client
After starting `Quasar.exe` for the first time, you will need to build a client for deployment on your computers.

After configuring the client for your needs, click the `Build` button and choose a location to save the built client.

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. To successfully establish a connection with the Quasar server it is necessary to enter a correct hostname which can be resolved from your configured DNS servers. 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. After configuring the client for your needs, click the `Build` button and choose a location to save the built client.

The standalone client from the previous step has to be deployed on the computers of the users. Simply executing the client on the computers is enough. The client will take care of the installation, startup, etc... Once installed the client will try to connect to your Server on the specified host-name and port. It might be necessary to set up port forwarding to your local Server if it is behind a firewall in your network. You can use automatic forwarding with UPnP in the settings if it's being supported by your firewall/router.
