Hi Greg.

It can be either a public or private IP address.

But for privacy you’ll probably want to set IPFire’s DNS server to DoT, then point the client to your IPFire’s Green DNS server.

Thanks,

Thanks. I choosed the green IP address. Think that’s a good way to go.

Works much better than OpenVPN and it’s very fast.

What I realized, that if you take for the allowed subnets the green one, you don’t have access to the other ones. Even if you have a roule that says the greens can go everywhere. If you want to go to red and orange you must choose 0.0.0.0/0.

thx greg
