VPN Server implemented in pure Python. (For Research Purposes Only)

Introduction

All VPN softwares are stupid, clumsy and hard to configure. So comes python-vpn.

  • NO app install needed
  • NO server configuration file
  • NO network interface added
  • NO iptables or "/etc" modified

Press "RETURN" to start, "CTRL+C" to stop.

QuickStart

$ pip3 install pvpn
Successfully installed pvpn-0.2.1
$ pvpn -p yourpassword
Serving on UDP :500 :4500...
^C
$ pvpn -wg 9000
Serving on UDP :500 :4500...
Serving on UDP :9000 (WIREGUARD)...
^C

Open server's UDP port :500 :4500 to your device. In device's system setting, add an "IPSec" (iOS) or "IPSec IKE PSK" (Android) node, write down the server address and password "yourpassword". Connect.

If you prefer wireguard VPN, specify "-wg (port)" parameter and open server's (port) UDP port to your device. Paste the printed server public key to wireguard client settings, write down the server address:port. Connect.

You should modify the default password "test" with a good one. See "pvpn -h" for more options.

Protocols

Protocol Name Name in iOS Name in Android Name in MacOS Name in Windows
L2TP PSK ✔ L2TP "L2TP/IPSec PSK" L2TP/IPSec L2TP
IKEv1 PSK ✔ IPsec [1] "IPSec Xauth PSK" Cisco IPSec IPSec

Examples

  • TCP Tunnel

    If the remote host match in file "rules.country", tunnel through http proxy.
    
    $ pvpn -r http://remote_server:port?rules.country
  • UDP Tunnel

    Redirect all DNS requests to 8.8.8.8.
    
    $ pvpn -ur tunnel://8.8.8.8:53?{53}
