# General Settings

In client general settings, you can specify an FQDN name or IP address of a machine where the Veeam ONE Server component is installed.

To specify client general settings:

1. Open Veeam ONE Client.

   For details, see [Accessing Veeam ONE Components](access.md).

2. In the main menu, click **Settings** > **Client Settings**.

   Alternatively, press `[CTRL + O]` on the keyboard.

3. In the **Client Settings** window, open the **General** tab.
4. In the **Host settings** section, specify an FQDN or IP address of a machine where the Veeam ONE Server component is installed.

   - If the connection to the Veeam ONE Server component is successful, the **Veeam ONE** **Monitoring Server** field is filled automatically with the name of the machine where Veeam ONE Server component is installed or localhost.
   - If Veeam ONE Server component is not found on the specified machine, Veeam ONE will prompt you to specify the correct name in the client settings.
