Opening Your First Tunnel

Now that you’ve installed the Jvln CLI, you can open your first tunnel with three simple commands. First, you need to start the Jvln daemon. To do so, run the following command:

Terminal window
jvln arm

You now need to establish a connection to a Jvln server. If you’re just trying it out, you can use jvln.sh. Target the server at which you want to open your tunnel.

Terminal window
jvln target --server jvln.sh

To confirm that the connection is successfully established, you can run jvln status. With a secure connection established, you are ready to open a tunnel. In this example, you’re opening a tunnel to TCP port 3000 on your machine.

Terminal window
jvln throw tcp --server jvln.sh --port 3000

A tunnel will be created and you will be provided with a URL to which you can send requests.

Congratulations on opening your first tunnel!
