Get Started in 5 Minutes

For production-grade installations, visit the Install Docs.
For an HA install using helm on k8s, visit the Helm Repo.

1. Get a cloud VM with Ubuntu 20.04 and a public IP.
2. Open ports 443, 53, and 51821-51830/udp on the VM firewall and in cloud security settings.
3. Run the script (see below for optional configurations):

sudo wget -qO - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/gravitl/netmaker/develop/scripts/nm-quick.sh | bash

Upon completion, the logs will display a script that can be used to automatically connect Linux and Mac devices. It will also display instructions for Windows, iPhone, and Android.

After installing Netmaker, check out the Walkthrough and Getting Started guides to learn more about configuring networks. Or, check out some of our other Tutorials for different use cases, including Kubernetes.

Optional configurations

Deploy a "Hub-And-Spoke VPN" on the server
This will configure a standard VPN (non-meshed) for private internet access, with 10 clients (-c).
sudo wget -qO - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/gravitl/netmaker/develop/scripts/nm-quick.sh | bash -s -- -v true -c 7

Specify Domain sand Email
Make sure your wildcard domain is pointing towards the server ip.
sudo wget -qO - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/gravitl/netmaker/develop/scripts/nm-quick.sh | bash -s -- -d mynetmaker.domain.com -e [email protected]

Script Options

./nm-quick
-d domain.example.com # specify a wildcard domain for netmaker to use (DNS must point to this server)
-e [email protected] # specify your email (for SSL certificates)
-m true # create a default 'mesh network' (on by default)
-v false # create a default 'VPN network' (off by default)
