      @Sergei_Shablovsky I am going to git hub clone it

      My concern is the apple store version could be different.

        @Sergei_Shablovsky Sorry but....

        Netgate WON with the correct ACLs access rules. My firewall already has Newnode's VPN port blocked..

        VPN connection is dead on first test Netgate stomped it out.

        I got it installed and it started however will not connect because the firewall blocks access to ports it wants. It's not approved with proper Access Control Lists NewNode is not an issue, however this is dependent on someone that can configure a ACL list correctly, many home users do the default so this would work with default settings.

        For now it is blocked on my VM test. I am going to spin down and delete this VM

        This is a scary VPN it disables the native firewall on osX also...

          I know from developer’s side, that GutHub and iOS/macOS versions are a little bit different.

          But not too much.

            Is it possible for You to test both NewNode and NewNode VPN on Your iPhone?

              @Sergei_Shablovsky The only way would be to create a virtualization instance of the iPhone, I can look into it. Can I ask why? Any iPhone can simply turn off WiFi to bypass the firewall.

                I try to understand if NewNode in VM has different behavior than NewNode app/VPN in real iOS device.

                  @Sergei_Shablovsky I can't help you with that I can only test with a virtual machine. The risk is too high to test on a live machine, sorry.

                    For situation where cell signals blocked and only in-house WiFi or wire are an options.
