Installing Algo Vpn to Amazon Lightsail

Installing Algo Vpn to Amazon Lightsail

  • Create a key pair (see: here if you need help with this step)
  • Log into Lightsail and upload your newly created SSH key to the region in which you plan to deploy your VPN server
  • Create a new $3.50/mo Ubuntu 16.04 LTS Lightsail instance in your desired location
  • Create and attach a static IP address to your new instance
  • Log into the newly created instance and run: do-release-upgrade - this will update the 16.04 instance to 18.04
  • Follow the directions in README.md to deploy the Algo server, selecting "Install Algo to existing Ubuntu 18.04 server" when prompted and using the user "ubuntu" when asked
  • Once Algo finishes installing, log into Lightsail and open UDP ports 500, 4500 and 51820.
