Setting Up OpenNet VPN on Linux

Linux users can connect to OpenNet VPN using the Xray (V2Ray) core, either through the command line or via a graphical client like Qv2ray. These methods support VMess, VLESS, Trojan, and Shadowsocks protocols.

🔐 Before you begin, make sure you have your OpenNet access code. You can obtain it from opennetvpn.comarrow-up-right.

Option 1: Command Line with Xray Core

1. Download Xray Core

2. Create Configuration File

  • If your OpenNet access code is a VMess/VLESS/Trojan link, convert it to a JSON config using tools like v2rayng.org or similar.

  • Create a file named config.json. Example structure:

{
  "inbounds": [{
    "port": 1080,
    "listen": "127.0.0.1",
    "protocol": "socks",
    "settings": {
      "auth": "noauth"
    }
  }],
  "outbounds": [{
    "protocol": "vmess",
    "settings": {
      "vnext": [{
        "address": "server_address",
        "port": 443,
        "users": [{
          "id": "uuid",
          "alterId": 0,
          "security": "auto"
        }]
      }]
    }
  }]
}

3. Run Xray

Execute the binary from your terminal:

4. Test the Connection

Use a tool like curl with your local SOCKS proxy:

If the IP address differs from your real one, the VPN is working.

Option 2: Qv2ray Graphical Interface

1. Install Qv2ray

2. Install Xray Core

On the first launch, Qv2ray will ask to download the Xray core or specify its location. Allow automatic download or point to the binary from earlier.

3. Import Configuration

  • Click New Connection.

  • Paste your VMess/VLESS/Trojan link or import a .json configuration.

  • Save the profile.

4. Connect to VPN

  • Select the profile and click Connect.

  • Optionally enable Global Proxy Mode to route all traffic.

  • To disconnect, click Disconnect.

🧩 Tips

  • Only one VPN method should be active at a time.

  • You can import multiple server configs and switch between them.

  • Both CLI and GUI methods offer full protocol flexibility on Linux.

Once configured, your Linux system enjoys the same encryption, performance, and anonymity as any OpenNet-supported platform.
