## Quickstart guide (Cloud Managed version)
|
|
Step-by-step video guide on YouTube:

|
|
|
|
This guide describes how to create secure VPN and connect 2 machines peer-to-peer.
|
|
|
|
One machine is a Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4 hosted at home (Peer A), and the other one is a regular Ubuntu server running in the Data Center (Peer B).
|
|
Both machines are running Linux (Raspbian and Ubuntu respectively), but you could also use Mac or Windows operating systems.
|
|
|
|
1. Sign-up at [https://app.netbird.io/](https://app.netbird.io/)
|
|
|
|
You can use your email and password to sign-up or any available social login option (e.g., GitHub account)

|
|
|
|
2. After a successful login you will be redirected to the ```Peers``` screen which is empty because you don't have any peers yet.
|
|
|
|
Click ```Add peer``` to add a new machine.
|

|
|
|
|
3. Choose a setup key which will be used to associate your new machine with your account (in our case it is ```Default key```).
|
|
|
|
Choose your machine operating system (in our case it is ```Linux```) and proceed with the installation steps on the machine.

|
|
4. Repeat #3 for the 2nd machine.
|
|
5. Return to ```Peers``` and you should notice 2 new machines with status ```Connected```
|
|

|
|
|
|
6. To test the connection you could try pinging devices:
|
|
|
|
On Peer A:
|
|
```ping 100.64.0.2```
|
|
|
|
On Peer B:
|
|
```ping 100.64.0.1```
|
|
7. Done! You now have a secure peer-to-peer VPN configured.
