- Default OpenVPN auth changed from "SHA1" to "RMD160"
- Client string option edited according to modification
Nothing else have been edited. So when you will start it the first time you will get the default configuration which is :
- */!\ Administration without any password /!*
- Server listenning on 443/tcp, 992/tcp, 1194/tcp+udp, tcp/5555
- A Virtual hub named "HUB" Without any user and SecureNAT off
- Connection on 443/tcp, 992/tcp, 1194/tcp, 5555/tcp with Softether VPN Protocol
- Connection on 1194/udp, 443/tcp, 992/tcp, 1194/tcp, 5555/tcp with OpenVPN Protocol
- MS-SSTP Connection
- Dynamic DNS
You will have to configure it. To do so use :
- SoftEther VPN CMD (any platform - Console)
- SoftEther VPN Server Manager (Windows, Mac OS X - GUI)
- Edit by hand /usr/vpnserver/vpn_server.config then restart the server (Not Recommended)
For a simple use without persistence :
docker run -d --cap-add NET_ADMIN --name softether-vpn-server -p 443:443/tcp -p 992:992/tcp -p 1194:1194/udp -p 5555:5555/tcp amary/softether-vpn-server
For a simple use with persistence (will give you access to configuration and logs) :
docker run -d --cap-add NET_ADMIN --name softether-vpn-server -p 443:443/tcp -p 992:992/tcp -p 1194:1194/udp -p 5555:5555/tcp -v $(pwd)/softether/config:/etc/vpnserver:Z -v $(pwd)/softether/logs:/var/log/vpnserver:Z amary/softether-vpn-server
