# Azure Proxy/VPN
How to setup a Shadowsocks proxy/VPN with a $5 per month VM hosted on Azure
(similar process for other Linux VMs too)
## Requirements:
- Azure VM with a public IP
- (optional) custom domain
### Azure VM
1. Head to [portal.azure.com](https://portal.azure.com/) and create an account
a. Once Created -> Virtual Machines -> Create
2. Select your desired VPN Region (Very important to make sure you choose the right one as switching over isn't simple
- East Asia: Hong Kong
- South East Asia: Singapore (recommended)
3. Ensure some version of Linux Ubuntu Server is choosen
4. Pick `Standard_B1ls - 1 vcpu, 0.5 GiB memory (US$3.94/month)` via 'Size'
5. Setup your SSH Public Key/Password (if not using SSH public key) and your username
6. Allow for SSH & HTTPS inbound ports
7. (Disks) Next > Ensure that 30GB is the selected disk space > select Standard SSD
8. (Networking) Create a new public IP (Make note of it)
9. Skip through everything and create your VM
### DNS custom Host
1. Head to Cloudflare (or your DNS provider)
2. Go to DNS Records
3. Type "A" | Name "your-subdomain" (or empty) | Content "your-azure-public-ip" | Proxy Status "DNS Only"
4. Add Record
From now on, only your custom host "example.com" where asked
### VM Setup
Go to [`./commands.md`](https://github.com/dcrebbin/azure-vpn/blob/main/commands.md) for more information
### Mac Client [(ClashX)](https://en.clashx.org) (Free)
1. Go to https://en.clashx.org -> Free Download
2. Once running -> Select ClashX from your toolbar -> Config -> Open config folder
3. Replace the default `config.yaml` with the [`./clash.yaml`](https://github.com/dcrebbin/azure-vpn/blob/main/clash.yaml) in this repo
4. (ClashX Dropdown) -> Config -> Reload Config
5. (ClashX Dropdown) -> GLOBAL -> Benchmark
If "clash" is green or yellow your VPN is now woring
#### ClashX Debugging
1. (ClashX Dropdown) -> Setting -> Debug -> Open Log Folder -> (Open the latest log file in a text editor)
### iOS Client [(Shadowrocket)](https://apps.apple.com/us/app/shadowrocket/id932747118) (Paid: $2.99 USD)
Notes on other clients (Free)
- V2Box - V2ray Client: Not working
- Potatso: Not working
- v2RayTun: Not working

Shadowrocket appears to be the only iOS app that has a big enough feature set that we can correctly configure your Shadowsocks VPN.
However let me know if there are any working free alternatives.
