OpenVPN VPS questions
- No. This page creates a standard Linux VPS. You install, secure, and maintain OpenVPN yourself. LightNode offers Tailscale, sing-box, and WireGuard as application images.
- The 1 vCPU and 2 GB RAM plan is enough for initial testing and a small number of users. Add CPU and bandwidth as concurrent connections and traffic grow.
- Yes. UDP usually has less overhead, while TCP can help on networks that restrict UDP. Open the protocol and port you select in the VPS firewall.
