There are two ways you can approach this:
- Importing a tunnel file
- Create a tunnel manually
Import a tunnel: You can import a tunnel file in the format of .zip or .conf
Create a tunnel manually: Here you start from scratch and enter the configuration you would like to have for your tunnel
Step 4: Make sure to enter the tunnel information in the format below:
[Interface]
PrivateKey =
Address =
DNS =
[Peer]
PublicKey =
AllowedIPs =

Feel free to add more information if needed to your tunnel then click Save
