Admin VPN¶

The admin VPN is set up to allow admins to access the network from outside of DCU, giving them an IP address on the internal network for troubleshooting, testing and integrating.

If you just want to create a new client configuration, go here: adding a new client

Setup¶

We use a WireGuard VPN managed by mordor.

Adding a New Client¶

To add a new client simply select the Aperture VPN and click add client on the mordor webui.

Revoking a Client¶

To revoke a client just select it and click remove.

Connecting to the VPN¶

To connect to the VPN, you will need to download the client configuration file or scan the qr code from mordor and load it onto WireGuard.

If you use NetworkManager on your machine and have WireGuard installed you can import the client file to NetworkManager with:

Bash

nmcli connection import type wireguard file /path/to/file

It can then be toggled on and off with nmtui or your desktop environments network configuration screen.
