Installation instructions for No-IP, can be found on the service's website.īefore installing OpenVPN or Pi VPN, you should install all available updates for the device's operating system. This gives your router a fixed host name that is forwarded automatically to your new IP address when your router's IP address is channged. If this isn't possible, you can use a service like No-IP, which is supported by most routers. Alternatively, you could ask them if it is possible to be assigned a fixed IP address. When you want to access your network from somewhere else, you'll need to set up a DDNS service, since your ISP likely alters your router's IP address every 24 hours. If your Raspberry Pi has an IP address of 192.168.1.10, then all of your router's UDP data traffic needs to be routed through port 1194. Through port forwarding, you'll make the fixed local IP address of your router accessible from outside of your LAN. In the administrator area of your router, you can assign the Raspberry Pi a fixed IPv4 address using its Mac address. Assign the VPN server a fixed IP in your local area network (LAN).Most Internet service providers (ISPs) assign their routers new, dynamic IP addresses every 24 hours, so you will also need to use a dynamic DNS (DDNS) service. It's also logical for the VPN server to have the same address when you access it remotely.
For OpenVPN, it is also important that the server has and can be accessed by a fixed local IP address in your network. Should you want to connect to the VPN server using SSH it makes sense to assign it a fixed IP address as greatly eases your ability to access it. You can find this out by checking your router when the Raspberry Pi is connected to your local network. To access your Raspberry Pi using SSH, you only need to know the device's IPv4 address. Usually, monitoring the server using SSH makes the most sense, since you can access the Raspberry Pi using tools through programs on your main computer like PuttY, WinSCP, or OpenSSH. An Internet connection (either by network cable or WiFi) to Raspberry Pi.Īdditionally, you should also consider if you want to connect your Raspberry Pi to a monitor, mouse, and keyboard, or if you would prefer to access the devices using SSH.A micro-SD flash memory card with Raspbian-Jessie installed.A Raspberry Pi (ideally Model 2 or newer).
