Just wondering about the RDP/SSH Access provided on the VPS. Is it possible to setup VPN on any of the VPS plans?

Well, I tried to search information about VPN & related offers and I got below statement in your knowledgebase.

VPN -

Virtual Private Network. A network that is constructed by using public wires to connect nodes. The data sent across the Internet is encrypted, so the entire network is “virtually” private.

Can anyone explain me how does the VPN configuration work on VPS please?

Thank you!

Hello,

Not sure if you are looking for VPN on windows VPS or on Linux. For Linux VPSes we will help you to enable TUN/TAP Module and for Windows VPN module from the hardware node.

Then you will be able to install VPN client for example openVPN on your VPS and confiure it your own as per your requirement.

Hello Peter,

Yes, it is possible to setup VPN on Windows as well as Linux VPS. If you want to install VPN on Windows VPS then you will need to contact you hosting provider and request them to enable RRAS-Routing and Remote Access in Windows 2003. Once this service is enabled you can easily install VPN on your VPS.

Thank you all,

So I can setup VPN on both Linux and Windows VPS. Will BodHost provide me support on the VPN I install?

Yes, you can setup VPN on both Linux and Windows VPS. I don't think Bodhost will provide support for VPN.

Usually all modules required for setting up VPN are installed on VPS thus you can setup VPS yourself. You would need TUN/TAP enabled on your VPS so as to configure VPN.

You can ask our VPS support team to enable TUN/TAP. You can leave a support ticket for the same. Feel free to contact us at any point of time ;)
