Installing as a Linux Systemd Service
On Linux distributions that support systemd, you can configure the service to start automatically with the system by following these steps:
- Create a new service file at
/etc/systemd/system/easytier.service
and modify the command line parameters afterExecStart
as needed.
shell
[Unit]
Description=EasyTier Service
After=network.target syslog.target
Wants=network.target
[Service]
Type=simple
ExecStart=/root/easytier-core --ipv4 x.x.x.x --network-name xxx --network-secret yyy --peers tcp://peer_host:11010
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
- After saving the file, run the following command in the terminal to enable the service:
sh
systemctl enable easytier.service
- You can start and stop the service using the following commands:
sh
systemctl start easytier.service
systemctl stop easytier.service
Please note that using the systemctl
command instead of the service
command is the more modern approach, and it is recommended to use it on systems that support systemd.
