**QUIC bridge is a requirement for all nodes which enable Wireguard functionality. Note that it this feature is compatible with nodes from `v1.18.0` (platform release [`v2025.17-isabirra`](https://github.com/nymtech/nym/releases/tag/nym-binaries-v2025.17-isabirra)) and newer!**
</ Callout>
Nym Network uses various [transport bridges](https://github.com/nymtech/nym-bridges/blob/main/README.md) for routing the packets. Right now operators need to configure [our implementation](https://github.com/nymtech/nym-bridges/tree/main/nym-bridge) of general-purpose transport layer network protocol called [QUIC](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QUIC).
Operators can use [Nym Bridge Configuration Tool](https://github.com/nymtech/nym-bridges/tree/main/bridge-cfg) and compile the [Bridge Runner binary](https://github.com/nymtech/nym-bridges/tree/main/nym-bridge) themselves.
**We recommend a more convenient QUIC bridge deployment using a script [`quic_bridge_deployment.sh`](https://github.com/nymtech/nym/blob/develop/scripts/nym-node-setup/quic_bridge_deployment.sh), following the steps below.**
<Steps>
###### 1. Download [`quic_bridge_deployment.sh`](https://github.com/nymtech/nym/blob/develop/scripts/nym-node-setup/quic_bridge_deployment.sh) script
- SSH to your server
- Download the script and make executable
```sh
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nymtech/nym/refs/heads/develop/scripts/nym-node-setup/quic_bridge_deployment.sh && \
chmod +x quic_bridge_deployment.sh
```
###### 2. Run the script with `full_bridge_setup` command
- Optional: open `tmux` in case you will need to run another commands on the VPS
- Run the script with a command `full_bridge_setup`
```sh
./nym-node-setup/quic_bridge_deployment.sh full_bridge_setup
```
###### 3. Follow the interactive prompts
- When you are asked for bridge binary URL, look here for one to match your system: [builds.ci.nymte.ch/QUIC](https://builds.ci.nymte.ch/QUIC/)
- When you are asked to enter forward address, it's your IPv4 used for bonding the node, alongside port `:51822` (an example: `172.232.238.161:51822`)
- To find out your IP address you can always run:
- IPv4: `curl -4 https://ifconfig.co/ip`
- IPv6: `curl -6 https://ifconfig.co/ip`
- **For all prompts with default options, we highly recommend to stick to default (press enter)**
###### 4. Restart the node service
- When done with the deployment, please restart your node systemd service
```sh
service nym-node restart && journalctl -u nym-node.service -f --all
```
</Steps>
Congratulation, you deployed QUIC transport bridge! The script offers a standalone tweaks and checks, you can always run it without any argument to see all the options:
```sh
./quic_bridge_deployment.sh
```
