6. If import the server’s configuration file, We currently support some basic parameters of the WireGuard configuration file as Pic 1. If the configuration file you use includes an IPv6 address, MTU, or many more (for example, Pic 2), please edit the file and delete those parameters, then save the file.

7. A message similar to the following will appear if the connection is successful.

8. In the client permissions options, select All Clients; all clients can connect to this VPN. Select Client List; please add clients who are allowed to use the VPN to the Client list.

Note: It is NOT suggested that the same configuration file be used on multiple VPN Clients simultaneously. This is a precautionary measure to ensure the security and stability of your VPN connections. You could import the configuration file into your mobile phones and router, but you are not allowed to connect to the VPN server simultaneously based on WireGuard protocols.
