You can use several methods to determine the service address of a node canister.
A default service address is initially assigned to each node canister, as shown in Table 1. Try using these addresses if the node has not been reconfigured, and the addresses are valid on your network.
If you are able to access the management GUI, the service IP addresses of the node canisters are shown by selecting a node and port at .
The service assistant home page lists the node canister that can communicate with the node.
If you know the service IP address of any node canister in the system, you can log into the service assistant of that node. Follow the previous instructions for using the service assistant, but at step 1, point your browser at the /service directory of the service IP address you know. If you know a service IP address is 11.22.33.56, point your web browser to 11.22.33.56/service.
Some types of errors can prevent nodes from communicating with each other; in that event, it might be necessary to point your browser directly at the service assistant of the node that requires administering, rather than change the current node in the service assistant.
If you are unable to find the service address of the node using the management GUI or service assistant, you can also use a USB flash drive to find it. For more information, see Procedure: Getting node canister and system information using a USB flash drive.
