AirVPN and Transmission

[haydenrivers 0]

I am trying to setup AirVPN with Transmission on macOS Sierra.

 

What do I need to do to set this up correctly?

 

1 - Do I need to setup a Kill Switch?  If so, how do you do this?

 

2 - Do I need to do some type of port forwarding inside of Transmission?  Or do I need to do something here? - https://airvpn.org/ports

 

thanks!

1, No. The AirVPN Lock precludes anything even knowing about other networks you may have

2. No. Certainly not. With any VPN running you are bypassing your connection from your computer from the eyes of your router and your ISP. The port forwarding is brilliant if you need it. I have not found it necessary for any torrent clients  to specify ports but you can - just remember they have nothing to do with ports outside the tunnel,
