Initial configuration

The BlueCherry connection is highly encrypted. Because of this the bluecherry-client must be provisioned. This process will perform the initial key-exchange and create the device in the BlueCherry platform. Follow these simple steps to provision your device:

  1. If you don't have a BlueCherry account already, register for an account on sso.bluecherry.io
  2. Make sure you have BlueCherry credits available, you can check your credits on https://user.bluecherry.io/credits.
  3. Execute the bluecherry-client provision command and follow the steps on screen. Generating the keys can take some seconds.

As soon as the provisioning process is complete you can configure the default forwarding port and validate the configuration. In many cases the default port should be set to port 80:

bluecherry-client set-default-port 80
bluecherry-client show-config

To test the tunnel in the background you can use the nohup command as follows:

nohup bluecherry-client start &
