How to Join your Minecraft Server

Once your server has been configured to your liking, joining your server is just as easy. When connecting to your server for the first time, you will need to find your server's IP address from the WabbaNode Control Panel and use it to join from within your Minecraft game.

Turn on your Minecraft Server

Before you are able to join the Minecraft server, your server must be online and available for connections.

1. Navigate to the WabbaNode Control Panel and to your new server.
2. On the top right, press the Start button to start your server.
3. Wait for your server to load, it should only take a few seconds.
   • You may be prompted to accept the EULA. Press I Accept to accept the EULA where your server will restart.
4. Look out for Done (##.##s)! For help, type "help" which is when your server has finished starting.
5. On the top right, press on your Server Address to copy it to your clipboard. It will look something like 12.345.67.89:12345, this is your server's IP.
