ANSWERED Xuange IP address

[20194 0]

Hi. I'm having a little trouble with this.
Running Ubuntu Server, I want to setup UFW rules to only connect through the VPN.

I started with these:
sudo ufw default deny outgoing
sudo ufw default deny incoming
sudo ufw allow out on tun0 from any to any
sudo ufw allow in on tun0 from any to any

Now I want to allow the IP address of the VPN Server. like this:
sudo ufw allow out from any to IP

Problem is I have no idea what IP address to use when I want to connect to Xuange in Zurich?
Where can I find it?

sudo ufw allow out from any to 79.142.69.159

Tried this doesn't work. Here are all my UFW rules, does something look wrong?

To                         Action      From
--                         ------      ----
22/tcp                     ALLOW       Anywhere
Anywhere on tun0           ALLOW       Anywhere
22/tcp (v6)                ALLOW       Anywhere (v6)
Anywhere (v6) on tun0      ALLOW       Anywhere (v6)

79.142.69.159              ALLOW OUT   Anywhere
Anywhere                   ALLOW OUT   Anywhere on tun0
Anywhere (v6)              ALLOW OUT   Anywhere (v6) on tun0

Hello!

Each VPN server has 4 entry-IP address. There are no domain names to obtain entry-IP addresses 2, 3 and 4 of a specific server, but only for countries or continents or all servers. You may consider to use the Configuration Generator or the API to get Xuange''s addresses only. For your comfort they are (v4 and v6, from 1 to 4):

1. 79.142.69.159 2a00:7145:c1:1:d166:dd1b:2fa3:dbdb
2. 79.142.69.161 2a00:7145:c1:1:6726:4916:97c9:c979
3. 79.142.69.162 2a00:7145:c1:1:6838:aa89:d61c:fb42
4. 79.142.69.163 2a00:7145:c1:1:c862:16de:4698:4c9d

Kind regards

Thanks for the reply.
After allowing these IPs in UFW, it still didn't work.

I decided to try to use wireguard directly instead of eddie-cli. To my surprise it now works. Does eddie-cli need any other IP adresses allowed through UFW?
Anyhow I'm going to keep using wireguard. It works much better than eddie-cli anyways.

Hello!

Yes, Eddie needs to access the "bootstrap" servers too. Anyway you can stick to WireGuard, as you say.

Kind regards
