Jump to PostYou connect to them using client software. To connect to a web server, use a browser. To connect to an FTP server, you can use an FTP client. For email same thing, use a mail client such as Outlook (if your are running Windows).

If this is your network, you would know the IP addresses.
Each server will have a unique IP address on the subnet. On a production network, its common to have a DNS server to map hostnames to IP addresses so that when your clients connect to networking services, they don't connect to the IP, they connect using friendly, easy to remember hostnames such as mail.yourDomain.tld, ftp.yourDomain.tld, etc... However, its up to you. You can hard code the IPs in the client software.
