 I want to do a quick video about private internet access and using it as a VPN with Untangle. And this is something I really like that Untangle kind of built in to make this easy and it's going to be just a couple clicks to get this started. If you don't have a private internet access account for VPN, there is a link down below that you can click that is a affiliate link that will help out my channel. If you'd like to, if you don't like me, then you can still sign up without an affiliate link. You just go there and click it. Let's move on. All right. So here we're at the Untangle dashboard and I'm also logged in to my PIA account here. So what we do, and this is going to be really quick and simple, we're going to go ahead and build a tunnel VPN. Now this can be done with the free version, untangle, no subscription necessary. Just throwing it out there. So if you just want to use the completely free version, these are all the built in apps and this is supported. We're going to go over here to apps. We're going to go to tunnel VPN. And you can see I already have it set up. And let me just walk you through the setup real quick here. So here we have the PIA VPN service and it's connected. And let's show you how you add a tunnel. So we're going to go here, we click add, select the provider. Now more than PIA access is supporting here. They have express VPN Nord VPN. You can customize and create your own file. So I'm sure it actually works with quite a few different ones, but you go here, private and access tunnel name, select VPN, can make a file username and password. Now this is how you build a config file. You go over here, once you're logged in to the PIA and your VPN open VPN config generator, choose Linux, choose where you want to be. So you can be in Europe, UK, London, Australia, Asia, all the different Asian options here, North America, maybe you just want to have a VPN, but it'll show up in maybe somewhere cool like Las Vegas rather than where I'm at in Detroit here. So whatever the options they be, or maybe just want to be in Mexico, you just go here and we're going to go ahead and generate that file. Done. We've now generated a Mexico VPN file. I'm actually going to go ahead and cancel this. We're going to edit my existing one. And we're just going to change the open VPN config file here. And right here is what it is now at New Zealand to Mexico. It opened and I'll show you right here. This is not my public IP of my company, but you do notice right in here. It thinks my country code is New Zealand. This is if config.co. So we're going to go over here. Now that we uploaded this file, same username, same password. I don't care that you see my username. This is my demo account I use, but you can't have a password. You got to get your own account. So we're going to go ahead and hit done. And go down here and hit save. And okay, that's it. We're going to go ahead and check the log. See what it did here. All right. Looks like it's connected. Go to status. It is. Now I will have to open up a new window because those sessions currently are probably still tagged to the old ones from pop up a new window here. I have config. Hey, look, now I'm showing in Mexico. So easy enough to set that up. Now the one thing that I want to show you here is the rules. Now the current rule we're using is post tagged with tunnel. So client tag tunnel, any available tunnel and send it out. The other options are, and you can build actually whatever options you want. You can tag just the traffic, just the ports. This is where they have the policies, essentially one click built in. These are the default example policies. If I check this box and hit save, it would route all the traffic over. But instead, I only want this particular computer behind the firewall to do it. And if you're wondering why I'm using Chrome wrote desktop, this is also up in my lab. And when you start switching IPs around, our software doesn't support out of country, well, we have out of country blocks. So that's why I'm using Chrome desktop to view this computer in case you're wondering. But right now we have a client, it says, and let's look at the rule more in depth. And this is just the rule built in. You can write any rule you want. So client is tagged tunnel, any available tunnel. So that means this is a tunnel, but we can actually, if you wanted to use more than one VPN service, you could specify the PIN tunnel, create a Nord VPN tunnel and specify which client goes out which tunnel with one click. Now, the way you tag a host is we're going to go over to hosts. And there are two hosts behind here. So here's a windows one and here is a Linux one. So here is the windows host. I just gave it the tag tunnel and away you go. So if you have a bunch of devices on your network, but you don't necessarily want all of them going out over the VPN, maybe just certain ones. This is how you would do that. You would just go list out all the hosts. Now to show you though, it's actually working. I'm going to SSH into that Linux box. That's why I left that one behind here. So you can see this is the WM box. It's 192.168.55.129. I know it's kind of small, but you can see it's 55.129 over here. So this is that one, but it doesn't have the tag tunnel. So we're going to go ahead and clear this curl. And if you haven't ever used this, this actually is nice. Curl if config slash co. And we're going to go ahead and do slash country. It thinks it's in the United States. And I could do my IP address this way too. If you actually did it this way, but then I had to blur it out. I don't want to share my public IP of our office on here. You'll have to work to figure that out. See what city it thinks we're in. Thanks for in Southfield. That's close enough. That's where our knock is, where the IP shows. So you can see that this WM box is doing that. So how do we get this one on there? Well, we can go back over here. We're going to add tunnel to this one. Add a tag tunnel done over here to save down at the bottom. And now if we go here to I have config slash city, we're in Mexico City. Simple as that. It changes and away we go. So this is kind of a really nice thing about the way untangle works is you can quickly change any of these hosts to be in a different location. You know, doing policy based routing with just the free version of untangle over here at tunnel. So if you're interested in PAVP and like I said, I have an offer linked down below, but it is that easy. It's only a couple of minutes set up. It's a couple of clicks set up and then write the rules how you want. If you just want everything to go out there, you do this. If you use their example rule, and I left the word example in there, because these are like built already clients is tagged tunnel or whatever you want to call it, it will then send that client out over the tunnel. These are one of the things I do like about untangles that it's so easy to use and easy to do things like this without a whole lot of management. So happy VPNing and good luck with this. This is definitely something to fun to play with. Thanks. Thanks for watching.
