Quick Start¶
The 3 Things You Need to Know¶
- The AI runs in an isolated box — It's on a virtual machine on your Strato server, completely separated from everything else.
- You control the AI's internet access — Go to the "AI Access Level" tab and choose Locked, Minimal, Development, or Unrestricted.
- If something goes wrong, hit Emergency Stop — The red 🛑 button immediately cuts off all AI internet access.
Connecting via VPN¶
Step 1: Connect to the Admin VPN¶
Use NetworkManager or the command line:
# NetworkManager GUI: Activate "Strato VPS Host" connection
# Or manually:
sudo wg-quick up vpn_host
Step 2: Verify Connectivity¶
Step 3: Access the Control Center¶
Open your browser and navigate to: https://firewall.clsxx.de
Login with BasicAuth credentials when prompted.
SSH Access¶
All SSH is VPN-only. No public SSH ports exist.
