SYNOPSIS

       gnunet-vpn  [-4  |  --ipv4]  [-6  | --ipv6] [-c FILENAME | --config=FILENAME] [-d TIME | --duration TIME]
                  [-h   |   --help]   [-i   IP   |   --ip    IP]    [-L    LOGLEVEL    |    --loglevel=LOGLEVEL]
                  [-p   PEERID  |  --peer=PEERID]  [-s  NAME  |  --service=NAME]  [-t  |  --tcp]  [-u  |  --udp]
                  [-V | --verbose] [-v | --version]

DESCRIPTION

       gnunet-vpn can be used to manually setup a VPN tunnel via the GNUnet network.  There are two  main  types
       of  tunnels.   Tunnels  to an exit node which routes the traffic to the global Internet, and tunnels to a
       node that runs a service only within GNUnet.  Depending on the type of tunnel, gnunet-vpn takes different
       options.  The -i option is required for tunnels to an exit  node,  whereas  the  -p  and  -s  options  in
       conjunction  with  either  -u or -t are required for tunnels to services.  For exit tunnels, both UDP and
       TCP traffic will be redirected.  For service tunnels, either  UDP  (-u)  or  TCP  (-t)  traffic  will  be
       redirected.   The  tool  will  display  the  IP  address  for this end of the tunnel.  The address can be
       displayed as soon as it has been allocated, or only after (-a) the tunnel has been created.

       -4 | --ipv4
               Desired IP address on this end of the tunnel should be an IPv4 address.

       -6 | --ipv6
               Desired IP address on this end of the tunnel should be an IPv6 address.

       -c FILENAME | --config=FILENAME
               Use the configuration file FILENAME.

       -d TIME | --duration TIME
               The mapping should be established for TIME.  The value given must be a number followed by a space
               and a time unit, for example "500 ms".  Note that the quotes are  required  on  the  shell.   The
               default value is 5 minutes.

       -h | --help
               Print short help on options.

       -i IP | --ip IP
               Tunnel should be to an exit node and connect to the given IPv4 or IPv6 IP address.  Note that you
               can  specify  an  IPv6  address  as  the  target  here,  even in combination with "-4" (4to6) and
               similarly you can specify an IPv4 address in combination with "-6" (6to4).

       -L LOGLEVEL | --loglevel=LOGLEVEL
               Use LOGLEVEL for logging.  Valid values are DEBUG, INFO, WARNING and ERROR.

       -p PEERID | --peer=PEERID
               Name of the peer offering the service to connect to.  Cannot be  used  in  conjunction  with  -i,
               requires -s.

       -s NAME | --service=NAME
               Name  of the service running on the target peer.  Cannot be used in conjunction with -i, requires
               -p.

       -t | --tcp
               Service runs TCP.  Either -t or -u must be specified when using -s.

       -u | --udp
               Service runs UDP.  Either -t or -u must be specified when using -s.

       -V | --verbose
               Be verbose.

       -v | --version
               Print GNUnet version number.
