-
-**NymVPN alpha** is a client that uses [Nym Mixnet](https://nymtech.net) to anonymise all of a user's internet traffic through either a 5-hop mixnet (for a full network privacy) or the faster 2-hop decentralised VPN (with some extra features).
-
-
-**You are invited to take part in the alpha testing** of this new application. Register for private testing round at [nymvpn.com](https://nymvpn.com/en), that will grant you access to the [download page](https://nymvpn.com/download). Visit [NymVPN Support & FAQ](https://nymvpn.com/en/support) or join the [NymVPN matrix channel](https://matrix.to/#/#NymVPN:nymtech.chat) if you have any questions, comments or blockers.
-
-Checkout the [release page](https://github.com/nymtech/nym-vpn-client/releases) for available binaries.

-*NOTE: NymVPN alpha is experimental software for testing purposes only.*

-## NymVPN Overview
-
-To understand what's under the hood of NymVPN and the mixnet, we recommend interested developers to begin with [Nym network overview](https://nymtech.net/docs/architecture/network-overview.html) and the [Mixnet traffic flow](https://nymtech.net/docs/architecture/traffic-flow.html) pages.
-
-The default setup of NymVPN is to run in 5-hop mode (mixnet):
-
-```
-                      ┌─►mix──┐  mix     mix
-                      │       │
-            Entry     │       │                   Exit
-client ───► Gateway ──┘  mix  │  mix  ┌─►mix ───► Gateway ───► internet
-                              │       │
-                              │       │
-                         mix  └─►mix──┘  mix
-```
-
-Users can switch to 2-hop only mode, which is a faster but less private option. In this mode traffic is only sent between the two Gateways, and is not passed between Mix Nodes. It uses Mixnet Sphinx packets with shorter, fixed routes, which improve latency, but doesn't offer the same level of protection as the 5 hop mode.
-<!-- TO BE IMPLEMENTED:
-Users can switch to 2-hop only mode, which is a faster but less private option. In this mode traffic is only sent between the two Gateways, and is not passed between Mix Nodes. The client than use two wireguard tunnels with the entry and exit gateway, the Exit Gateway one being tunnelled itself through the entry gateway tunnel. NymVPN uses Mullvad libraries for wrapping `wireguard-go` and to setup local routing rules to route all traffic to the TUN virtual network device.

-```admonish info
-NymVPN is an experimental software and it's for testing purposes only. All users testing the client are expected to sign GDPR Information Sheet and Consent Form (shared at the workshop) so we use their results to improve the client, and submit the form [*NymVPN User research*]({{nym_vpn_form_url}}) with the testing results.

-## Installation
-
-> Any syntax in `<>` brackets is a user's/version unique variable. Exchange with a corresponding name without the `<>` brackets.
-
-1. Open Github [releases page](https://github.com/nymtech/nym-vpn-client) and download the CLI latest binary for your system
-
-2. Verify sha hash of your downloaded binary with the one listed on the [releases page](https://github.com/nymtech/nym-vpn-client). You can use a simple `shasum` command and compare strings (ie with Python) or run in the same directory the following command, exchanging `<SHA_STRING>` with the one of your binary, like in the example:
-```sh
-echo "<SHA_STRING>" | shasum -a 256 -c
-
-# choose a correct one according to your binary, this is just an example
-# echo "0e4abb461e86b2c168577e0294112a3bacd3a24bf8565b49783bfebd9b530e23  nym-vpn-cli_<!-- cmdrun scripts/nym_vpn_cli_version.sh -->_ubuntu-22.04_amd64.tar.gz" | shasum -a 256 -c
-```
-
-3. Extract files:
-```sh
-tar -xvf <BINARY>.tar.gz
-# for example
-# tar -xvf nym-vpn-cli_<!-- cmdrun scripts/nym_vpn_cli_version.sh -->_ubuntu-22.04_x86_64.tar.gz
-```
-
-4. Make executable:
-```sh
-# make sure you are in the right sub-directory
-chmod u+x ./nym-vpn-cli
-```
-
-## Run NymVPN
-
-**For NymVPN to work, all other VPNs must be switched off!** At this alpha stage of NymVPN, the network connection (wifi) must be reconnected after or in between the testing rounds.
-
-Make sure your terminal is open in the same directory as your `nym-vpn-cli` binary.
-
-1. Go to [nymvpn.com/en/alpha](https://nymvpn.com/en/alpha) to get the entire command with all the needed arguments' values and your wireguard private key for testing purposes
-2. Run it as root with `sudo` - the command will look like this with specified arguments:
-```sh
-sudo ./nym-vpn-cli -c ./sandbox.env --entry-gateway-id <ENTRY_GATEWAY_ID> --exit-router-address <EXIT_ROUTER_ADDRESS> --enable-wireguard --private-key <PRIVATE_KEY> --wg-ip <WIREGUARD_IP>
-```
-3. To choose different Gateways, visit [explorer.nymtech.net/network-components/gateways](https://explorer.nymtech.net/network-components/gateways) and copy-paste an identity key of your choice
-4. See all possibilities in [command explanation](#cli-commands-and-options) section below
-
-In case of errors, see [troubleshooting section](troubleshooting.md).

-# NymVPN alpha CLI: Guide for MacOS
-
-```admonish info
-NymVPN is an experimental software and it's for testing purposes only. All users testing the client are expected to sign GDPR Information Sheet and Consent Form (shared at the workshop) so we use their results to improve the client, and submit the form [*NymVPN User research*]({{nym_vpn_form_url}}) with the testing results.
-```
-
-## Preparation
-
-> Any syntax in `<>` brackets is a user's/version unique variable. Exchange with a corresponding name without the `<>` brackets.
-
-1. Open Github [releases page](https://github.com/nymtech/nym-vpn-client) and download the binary for MacOS
-2. Verify sha hash of your downloaded binary with the one listed on the [releases page](https://github.com/nymtech/nym-vpn-client). You can use a simple `shasum` command and compare strings (ie with Python) or run in the same directory the following command, exchanging `<SHA_STRING>` with the one of your binary, like in the example:
-```sh
-echo "<SHA_STRING>" | shasum -a 256 -c
-
-# choose a correct one according to your binary, this is just an example
-# echo "96623ccc69bc4cc0e4e3e18528b6dae6be69f645d0a592d926a3158ce2d0c269  nym-vpn-cli_<!-- cmdrun scripts/nym_vpn_cli_version.sh -->_macos_x86_64.zip" | shasum -a 256 -c
-```
-3. Extract files:
-```sh
-tar -xvf <BINARY>
-# for example
-# tar -xvf nym-vpn-cli_<!-- cmdrun scripts/nym_vpn_cli_version.sh -->_macos_aarch64.tar.gz
-```
-4. Make executable by running:
-```sh
-# possibly you may have to cd into a sub-directory
-chmod u+x ./nym-vpn-cli
-```
-5. Create Sandbox environment config file by saving [this](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nymtech/nym/develop/envs/sandbox.env) as `sandbox.env` in the same directory as your NymVPN binaries by running:
-```sh
-curl -L "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nymtech/nym/develop/envs/sandbox.env" -o sandbox.env
-```
-
-## Run NymVPN
-
-**For NymVPN to work, all other VPNs must be switched off!** At this alpha stage of NymVPN, the network connection (wifi) must be reconnected after or in between the testing rounds.
-
-Make sure your terminal is open in the same directory as your `nym-vpn-cli` binary.
-
-1. Go to [nymvpn.com/en/alpha](https://nymvpn.com/en/alpha) to get the entire command with all the needed arguments' values and your wireguard private key for testing purposes
-2. Run it as root with `sudo` - the command will look like this with specified arguments:
-```sh
-sudo ./nym-vpn-cli -c ./sandbox.env --entry-gateway-id <ENTRY_GATEWAY_ID> --exit-router-address <EXIT_ROUTER_ADDRESS> --enable-wireguard --private-key <PRIVATE_KEY> --wg-ip <WIREGUARD_IP>
-```
-3. To choose different Gateways, visit [nymvpn.com/en/alpha/api/gateways](https://nymvpn.com/en/alpha/api/gateways) and pick one
-4. See all possibilities in [command explanation](#cli-commands-and-options) section below

-NymVPN is an experimental software and it's for testing purposes only. Anyone can submit a registration to the private alpha round on [nymvpn.com](https://nymvpn.com/en).
-```
-
-## Overview
-
-The core binaries consist of:
-
- **`nym-vpn-cli`**: Basic commandline client for running the vpn. This runs in the foreground.
-
- **`nym-vpnd`**: Daemon implementation of the vpn client that can run in the background and interacted with using `nym-vpnc`.
-
- **`nym-vpnc`**: The commandline client used to interact with `nym-vpnd`.
-
-
-## Installation
-
-> Any syntax in `<>` brackets is a user's/version unique variable. Exchange with a corresponding name without the `<>` brackets.
-
-1. Open Github [releases page](https://github.com/nymtech/nym-vpn-client) and download the CLI latest binary for your system (labelled as `nym-vpn-core`)
-
-2. Verify sha hash of your downloaded binary with the one listed on the [releases page](https://github.com/nymtech/nym-vpn-client). You can use a simple `shasum` command and compare strings (ie with Python) or run in the same directory the following command, exchanging `<SHA_STRING>` with the one of your binary, like in the example:
-```sh
-echo "<SHA_STRING>" | shasum -a 256 -c
-
-# choose a correct one according to your binary, this is just an example
-# echo "0e4abb461e86b2c168577e0294112a3bacd3a24bf8565b49783bfebd9b530e23  nym-vpn-cli_<!-- cmdrun ../../../scripts/cmdrun/nym_vpn_cli_version.sh -->_ubuntu-22.04_amd64.tar.gz" | shasum -a 256 -c
-```
-
-3. Extract files:
-```sh
-tar -xvf <BINARY>.tar.gz
-# for example
-# tar -xvf nym-vpn-cli_<!-- cmdrun ../../../scripts/cmdrun/nym_vpn_cli_version.sh -->_ubuntu-22.04_x86_64.tar.gz
-```
-
-### Building From Source
-
-NymVPN CLI can be built from source. This process is recommended for more advanced users as the installation may require different dependencies based on the operating system used.
-
-Start by installing [Go](https://go.dev/doc/install) and [Rust](https://rustup.rs/) languages on your system and then follow these steps:
-
-1. Clone NymVPN repository:
-```sh
-git clone https://github.com/nymtech/nym-vpn-client.git
-```
-
-2. Move to `nym-vpn-client` directory and compile `wireguard`:
-
-```sh
-cd nym-vpn-client
-
-make build-wireguard
-```
-
-3. Compile NymVPN CLI
-```sh
-make build-nym-vpn-core
-```
-
-Now your NymVPN CLI is installed. Navigate to `nym-vpn-core/target/release` and use the commands the section below to run the client.
-
-## Running
-
-If you are running Debian/Ubuntu/PopOS or any other distributio supporting debian packages and systemd, see the [relevant section below](#debian-package-for-debianubuntupopos).
-
-### Daemon
-
-Start the daemon with
-
-```sh
-sudo -E ./nym-vpnd
-```
-
-Then run
-
-```sh
-./nym-vpnc status
-./nym-vpnc connect
-./nym-vpnc disconnect
-```
-
-### CLI
-
-An alternative to the daemon is to run the `nym-vpn-cli` commandline client that runs in the foreground.
-```sh
-./nym-vpn-cli run
-```
-
-## Credentials
-
-NymVPN uses [zkNym bandwidth credentials](https://nymtech.net/docs/bandwidth-credentials.html). Those can be imported as a file or base58 encoded string.
-
-
-```sh
-sudo -E ./nym-vpn-cli import-credential --credential-path </PATH/TO/freepass.nym>
-sudo -E ./nym-vpn-cli import-credential --credential-data "<STRING>"
-```
-
-## Debian package for Debian/Ubuntu/PopOS
-
-For linux platforms using deb packages and systemd, there are also debian packages.
-
-```sh
-sudo apt install ./nym-vpnd_<!-- cmdrun ../../../scripts/cmdrun/nym_vpn_cli_version.sh -->-1_amd64.deb ./nym-vpnc_<!-- cmdrun ../../../scripts/cmdrun/nym_vpn_cli_version.sh -->-1_amd64.deb
-
-# In case of error please substitute the correct version
-```
-
-Installing the `nym-vpnd` deb package starts a `nym-vpnd.service`. Check that the daemon is running with
-```sh
-systemctl status nym-vpnd.service
-```
-and check its logs with
-```sh
-sudo journalctl -u nym-vpnd.service -f
-```
-To stop the background service
-```sh
-systemctl stop nym-vpnd.service
-```
-It will start again on startup, so disable with
-```sh
-systemctl disable nym-vpnd.service
-```
-
-Interact with it with `nym-vpnc`
-```sh
-nym-vpnc status
-nym-vpnc connect
-nym-vpnc disconnect
-```
-
-## Commands & Options
-
-```admonish note
-Nym Exit Gateway functionality was implemented just recently and not all the Gateways are upgraded and ready to handle the VPN connections. If you want to make sure you are connecting to a Gateway with an embedded Network Requester, IP Packet Router and applied Nym exit policy, visit [harbourmaster.nymtech.net](https://harbourmaster.nymtech.net/) and search Gateways with all the functionalities enabled.

-
-**NymVPN [*Support & FAQ page*](https://nymvpn.com/en/support)** contains all essential FAQs regarding the client. This page (below) is a source of additional information often seeked by users, operators and developers testing NymVPN.
-
-If you interested to read more about Nym platform, you can have a look at [Nym general FAQ](https://nymtech.net/developers/faq/general-faq.html) and read through Nym's technical [documentation](https://nymtech.net/docs), [Developer Portal](https://nymtech.net/developers) and [Operators Guide](https://nymtech.net/operators).
-
-## NymVPN
-
-If this your first time hearing about NymVPN, make sure you visit [NymVPN webpage](https://nymvpn.com/en), the official NymVPN [support & FAQ page](https://nymvpn.com/en/support) and the proceed to the introduction and guide on how to [install, run and test](intro.md#nymvpn-guides) the client.
-
-Below are some extra FAQs which came out during the previous alpha testing rounds.
-
-### What's the difference between 2-hops and 5-hops
-
-The default is 5-hops (including Entry and Exit Gateways), which means that the traffic goes from the local client to Entry Gateway -> through 3 layers of Mix Nodes -> to Exit Gateway -> internet. this option uses all the Nym Mixnet features for maximum privacy.
-
-```
-                      ┌─►mix──┐  mix     mix
-                      │       │
-            Entry     │       │                   Exit
-client ───► Gateway ──┘  mix  │  mix  ┌─►mix ───► Gateway ───► internet
-                              │       │
-                              │       │
-                         mix  └─►mix──┘  mix
-```
-
-The 2-hop option is going from the local client -> Entry Gateway -> directly to Exit Gateway -> internet. This option is good for operations demanding faster connection. Keep in mind that this setup by-passes the 3 layers of Mix Nodes. The anonymising features done by your local client like breaking data into same-size packets with inserting additional "dummy" ones to break the time and volume patterns is done in both options.
-
-```
-            Entry         Exit
-client ───► Gateway ────► Gateway ───► internet
-```
-
-We highly recommend to read more about [Nym network overview](https://nymtech.net/docs/architecture/network-overview.html) and the [Mixnet traffic flow](https://nymtech.net/docs/architecture/traffic-flow.html).
-
-### Why do I see different sizes of packets in my terminal log?
-
-One of features of Nym Mixnet's clients is to break data into the same size packets called Sphinx, which is currently ~2kb. When running NymVPN, the data log shows payload sizes, which are the raw sizes of the IP packets, not Sphinx. The payload sizes will be capped by the configured MTU, which is set around 1500 bytes.
-
-### What is 'poisson filter' about?
-
-By default `--enable-poisson` is disabled and packets are sent from the local client to the Entry Gateway as quickly as possible. With the poisson process enabled the Nym client will send packets at a steady stream to the Entry Gateway. By default it's on average one sphinx packet per 20ms, but there is some randomness (poisson distribution). When there are no real data to fill the sphinx packets with, cover packets are generated instead.
-
-Enabling the poisson filter is one of the key mechanisms to de-correlate input and output traffic to the Mixnet. The performance impact however is dramatic:
-1 packer per 20ms is 50 packets / sec so ballpark 100kb/s.
-For mobile clients that means constantly sending data eating up data allowance.
-
-
-## Nym Mixnet Architecture and Rewards
-
-We have a list of questions related to Nym Nodes and the incentives behind running them under [FAQ pages](https://nymtech.net/operators/faq/mixnodes-faq.html) in our [Operators Guide](https://nymtech.net/operators). For better knowledge about Nym architecture we recommend to read [Nym network overview](https://nymtech.net/docs/architecture/network-overview.html) and the [Mixnet traffic flow](https://nymtech.net/docs/architecture/traffic-flow.html) in our [technical documentation](https://nymtech.net/docs).

-## Project Smoosh
-
-Project Smoosh is a code name for a process in which different components of Nym Mixnet architecture get *smooshed* into one binary. Check out [Smoosh FAQ](https://nymtech.net/operators/faq/smoosh-faq.html) in Operators Guide to read more.
-
-## Exit Gateway
-
-Part of the the transition under code name [Project Smoosh](#project-smoosh) is a creation of [Nym Exit Gateway](https://nymtech.net/operators/legal/exit-gateway.html) functionality. The operators running Gateways would have to “open” their nodes to a wider range of online services, in a similar fashion to Tor exit relays. The main change will be to expand the original short [allowed.list](https://nymtech.net/.wellknown/network-requester/standard-allowed-list.txt) to a more permissive setup. An [exit policy](https://nymtech.net/.wellknown/network-requester/exit-policy.txt) will constrain the hosts that the users of the Nym VPN and Mixnet can connect to. This will be done in an effort to protect the operators, as Gateways will act both as SOCKS5 Network Requesters, and exit nodes for IP traffic from Nym VPN and Mixnet clients.
-
-* Read more how the exit policy gets implemented [here](https://nymtech.net/operators/faq/smoosh-faq.html#how-will-the-exit-policy-be-implemented)
-* Check out [Nym Operators Legal Forum](https://nymtech.net/operators/legal/exit-gateway.html)
-* Do reach out to us with any experiences you may have running Tor Exit relays or legal findings and suggestions for Nym Exit Gateway operators

-NymVPN is an experimental software and it's for testing purposes only. All users testing the client are expected to sign GDPR Information Sheet and Consent Form (shared at the workshop) so we use their results to improve the client, and submit the form [*NymVPN User research*]({{nym_vpn_form_url}}) with the testing results.
-```
-
-## Preparation
-
-> Any syntax in `<>` brackets is a user's/version unique variable. Exchange with a corresponding name without the `<>` brackets.
-
-### Installation
-
-1. Open Github [releases page](https://github.com/nymtech/nym-vpn-client) and download the binary for Debian based Linux
-
-2. (Optional: if you don't want to check shasum, skip this point) Verify sha hash of your downloaded binary with the one listed on the [releases page](https://github.com/nymtech/nym-vpn-client). You can use a simple `shasum` command and compare strings (ie with Python) or run in the same directory the following command, exchanging `<SHA_STRING>` with the one of your binary, like in the example:
-```sh
-echo "<SHA_STRING>" | shasum -a 256 -c
-
-# choose a correct one according to your binary, this is just an example
-# echo "a5f91f20d587975e30b6a75d3a9e195234cf1269eac278139a5b9c39b039e807  nym-vpn-desktop_<!-- cmdrun scripts/nym_vpn_desktop_version.sh -->_ubuntu-22.04_x86_64.tar.gz" | shasum -a 256 -c
-```
-
-3. Extract files:
-```sh
-tar -xvf <BINARY>.tar.gz
-# for example
-# tar -xvf nym-vpn-desktop_<!-- cmdrun scripts/nym_vpn_desktop_version.sh -->_ubuntu-22.04_x86_64.tar.gz
-```
-
-4. If you prefer to run `.AppImage` make executable by running:
-```sh
-# make sure you cd into the right sub-directory after extraction
-chmod u+x ./nym-vpn_<!-- cmdrun scripts/nym_vpn_desktop_version.sh -->_amd64.AppImage
-```
-
-5. If you prefer to use the `.deb` version for installation (works on Debian based Linux only), open terminal in the same directory and run:
-```sh
-# make sure you cd into the right sub-directory after extraction
-sudo dpkg -i ./nym-vpn_<!-- cmdrun scripts/nym_vpn_desktop_version.sh -->_amd64.deb
-# or
-sudo apt-get install -f ./nym-vpn_<!-- cmdrun scripts/nym_vpn_desktop_version.sh -->_amd64.deb
-```
-
-<!--
-NymVPN alpha version runs over Nym testnet (called sandbox), a little extra configuration is needed for the application to work.
-
-### Configuration
-
-To test NymVPN alpha we must create two configuration files: an environment config file `sandbox.env` and `config.toml` file pointing the application to run over the testnet environment.
-
-6. Create a NymVPN config directory called `nym-vpn` in your `~/.config`, either manually or by a command:
-```sh
-mkdir $HOME/.config/nym-vpn/
-```
-7. Create the network testnet config: copy-paste [this](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nymtech/nym/develop/envs/sandbox.env) and save as `sandbox.env` in the directory `~/.config/nym-vpn/` you just created. Aternatively do it by runnin a command
-```sh
-curl -o $HOME/.config/nym-vpn/sandbox.env -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nymtech/nym/develop/envs/sandbox.env
-```
-
-8. Create NymVPN main config file: copy-paste the line below and save it as `config.toml` in the same directory `~/.config/nym-vpn/`:
-```toml
-# change <USER> to your username
-env_config_file = "/home/<USER>/.config/nym-vpn/sandbox.env"
-```
-->
-
-## Run NymVPN
-
-**For NymVPN to work, all other VPNs must be switched off!** At this alpha stage of NymVPN, the network connection (wifi) must be reconnected after or in between the testing rounds.
-
-In case you used `.deb` package and installed the client, you may be able to have a NymVPN application icon in your app menu. However this may not work as the application needs root permission.
-
-Open terminal and run:
-
-```sh
-# .AppImage must be run from the same directory as the binary
-sudo -E ./nym-vpn_<!-- cmdrun scripts/nym_vpn_desktop_version.sh -->_amd64.AppImage
-
-# .deb installation shall be executable from anywhere as
-sudo -E nym-vpn
-```
-

-
-## Linux AppImage Automated Installation Method
-
-The latest releases contain `appimage.sh` script. This method makes the installation simple for Linux users who want to run NymVPN from AppImmage. Executing the command below will download the binary to `~/.local/bin` and verify the checksum:
-```sh
-curl -fsSL https://github.com/nymtech/nym-vpn-client/releases/download/nym-vpn-desktop-v<!-- cmdrun scripts/nym_vpn_desktop_version.sh -->/appimage.sh | bash
-```
-
-Run with the command:
-```sh
-sudo -E ~/.local/bin/nym-vpn.appimage
-```
-
-## Automated Script for GUI Installation (Linux and Mac)
-
-We wrote a [script](https://gist.github.com/tommyv1987/7d210d4daa8f7abc61f9a696d0321f19) which does download of dependencies and the application, sha256 verification, extraction, installation and configuration for Linux and MacOS users automatically. Turn off all VPNs and follow the steps below.
-
-1. Open a terminal window in a directory where you want the script to be downloaded and run
-```sh
-curl -o nym-vpn-desktop-install-run.sh -L https://gist.githubusercontent.com/tommyv1987/7d210d4daa8f7abc61f9a696d0321f19/raw/939ac8d0afed69f43739b9cf2e5728454ea2c437/nym-vpn-client-install-run.sh && chmod u+x nym-vpn-desktop-install-run.sh && sudo -E ./nym-vpn-desktop-install-run.sh
-```
-
-2. Follow the prompts in the program
-
-To start the application again, reconnect your wifi and run
-```sh
-# Linux .AppImage
-sudo -E ~/nym-vpn-latest/nym-vpn-desktop_<!-- cmdrun scripts/nym_vpn_desktop_version.sh -->_ubuntu-22.04_x86_64/nym-vpn_<!-- cmdrun scripts/nym_vpn_desktop_version.sh -->_amd64.AppImage
