Pivpn

I have recentely had to configure a vpn to access my wd network share after the 1001th frustration with the mycloud app and downtimes.

Quick steps to configure pivpn with ddns:

make dhcp reservation for rpi on router

port forward whatever port the vpn will use with UDP set as the protocol (avoid default wg port due to port scanning)

register a noip domain

make a ddclient service for Raspberry Pi dynamic DNS

configure router to update noip when IP changes

normal pivpn setup
