New 1 Gbit/s server available (US)

[Staff 9972]

Hello!

We're very glad to inform you that a new 1 Gbit/s full duplex servers located in Chicago, Illinois, is available: Superba.

The AirVPN client will show automatically the new server; if you use any other OpenVPN or WireGuard client you can generate all the files to access them through our configuration/certificates/key generator (menu "Client Area"->"Config generator").

The server accepts connections on ports 53, 80, 443, 1194, 2018 UDP and TCP for OpenVPN and ports 1637 and 47107 UDP for WireGuard.

Superba supports OpenVPN over SSL and OpenVPN over SSH, TLS 1.3, OpenVPN tls-crypt and WireGuard.

Full IPv6 support is included as well.

As usual no traffic limits, no logs, no discrimination on protocols and hardened security against various attacks with separate entry and exit-IP addresses.

You can check the status as usual in our real time servers monitor:
https://airvpn.org/servers/Superba/
 

Do not hesitate to contact us for any information or issue.

Kind regards and datalove
AirVPN Team

Is DNS taking time to propagate or is this a change to config generation etc?

been this way for years that some Air servers didn't resolve with that domain pattern but that's the one I always try to use so I forget the "proper" way.  apparently it's superba.airservers.org

Thanks for the insight, I haven't seen this before. I noticed it because the config generator didn't provide a non-resolved config file when requested too.

I always get resolved hosts configs anyway so that DNS isn't required for connection.

Hello!
Correct. The old <servername>.airvpn.org for the entry-IP address 1 has been maintained for backward compatibility for some years only on old servers for a smoother transition. New server domain names (for all servers) follow the current documentation for example https://airvpn.org/faq/servers_ip/

Kind regards

If you could only get a pattern like

superba3.airservers.org

or

superba3.vpn.airdns.org

working.   But it seems requesting an alternate entry IP only works with regions or nations.

@go558a83nk

Hello!
Yes, the lack of entry-IP addresses 2, 3 and 4 on server domain names persists since 2010 and probably does not make sense anymore now. We'll think about it.
Kind regards

This is awesome news! I had just posted about this not even a week ago and you guys already added another server. Problem solved. Love to see it. Keep up the good work!
