Search & Select helps connect Client by trying both a search and a remembered Server.
Search lets a newly installed Big Business Client search locally for Big Business Server. Select remembers the address of a Server and tries it next, twice. This covers the bases.
This is the default setting for Remember Server and the best overall choice for success. To optimize for Remote Client, Wireless Networks, or Remote Server, see the options.
Select is the Remember Server setting that lets your Client instantly select your Server.
This skips the default Search & Select that searches your local network for 10 seconds. Instead, your Big Business Client immediately selects the Server that it used last time.
