Does anyone know how to set up a start9? I have a friend who's not very tech knowledgeable but was gifted one and wants to run it as a node in their office. I believe it's already assembled (it might even have bitcoin core already installed), but I have no idea how to "bootstrap" it (unfortunately they are also on Windows, but the question stands even if they weren't). How does one connect to it to start with? If it's on the LAN, do you search for the device by IP and then .. what? I saw some general description of steps on the net but it seems to say "access it via embassy.local" but that (unsurprisingly) didn't work immediately. BTC sessions tutorial says "put http://" at the front in the browser and it will work, but I'm having a hard time believing, is that it all it takes, if it's on the LAN? How would that name resolution work without any configuration?
