WireGuard Port Forwarding enabled

After the recent addition of Multi-Hop for WireGuard, we are now introducing port forwarding support for Wireguard. Port forwarding allows incoming connections on a specific port, enabling you to run various services on your device that need to be accessible from the Internet. This feature comes with potential threats, so we suggest reviewing our brief introduction to port forwarding.

You can enable port forwarding for both WireGuard and OpenVPN by logging in and visiting the Port Forwarding tab in your client area.

Please note that WireGuard port forwarding will not be activated automatically until you have disconnected all your active sessions at least once. After doing so please wait 10 mins and reconnect using your chosen protocol.

DNS over HTTPS (DoH) support on macOS, Linux and Windows

Posted on April 5, 2022 by IVPN Staff

IVPN offers custom DNS servers which, when accessed through the VPN ensure that your DNS queries are encrypted between your device and our DNS server. This is a necessity, as DNS queries are not encrypted by the DNS protocol and can be easily read by an adversary observing your traffic (even when using HTTPS for your web traffic).
