Frequently Asked Questions about macOS Server 5.9

If you're upgrading from macOS Server 5.6.3 or earlier, learn about changes introduced in macOS Server 5.7.1. Change your server's IP address with macOS Server. The Server app displays your server's IP address, which you can change in the Network pane of System Preferences.
