H-UI VPN Server¶

Deployment Features¶

Getting Started after Deploying H-UI VPN Server¶

After paying for your order, a notification will be sent to the email address you registered with, indicating that the server is ready to operate. It will contain the VPS IP address, as well as the login and password for connecting. Our clients manage their equipment via the server management panel and API — Invapi.

Authorization data can be found either in the Info >> Tags tab of the server management panel or in the email sent to you:

• Link to the Hysteria‑UI VPN Server management panel: in the webpanel tag. The exact URL of the form https://hui{Server_ID_from_Invapi}.hostkey.in is sent in the email when the server is delivered;
• Login: useradmin;
• Password: Use root password (from SSH access) is sent in the email to your address when the server is delivered.

Configuring the Hysteria2 Proxy Server¶

Before using the service, you need to configure the Hysteria2 proxy server. Go to the Hysteria Manage tab. You will see a notification Hysteria2 Status:Stop

Fill in the settings before starting:

1. In the Extension tab, set a custom name (e.g., my_server)

   

2. In the Listen tab, set the port (you can leave it as default)

   

3. In the TLS tab, set the following parameters:

   • tls.type = tls
   • cert: enter the following key using your server's parameters

   /var/lib/docker/volumes/nginx_secrets/_data/live/hui{Server_ID_from_Invapi}.hostkey.in/fullchain.pem
   

   - key: enter the following key using your server's parameters

   /var/lib/docker/volumes/nginx_secrets/_data/live/hui{Server_ID_from_Invapi}.hostkey.in/privkey.pem
   

   

   Attention

   Replace in strings /var/lib/docker/volumes/nginx_secrets/_data/live/hui{Server_ID_from_Invapi}.hostkey.in/privkey.pem and /var/lib/docker/volumes/nginx_secrets/_data/live/hui{Server_ID_from_Invapi}.hostkey.in/privkey.pem part {Server_ID_from_Invapi} for you server number, like /var/lib/docker/volumes/nginx_secrets/_data/live/hui12756.hostkey.in/privkey.pem.

4. Click the Add Config Item button and select ACL. In the appearing ACL tab, set the following parameters:

   • acl.inline = reject(all, udp/443)

   

5. Click the Save button and toggle the switch to Enable

   

Now Hysteria2 has started successfully, and you can add users.

Configuring User Accounts¶

To grant users access, add a user via the Account Manage menu. Go to the menu and click the Add button

Configure the user's parameters (Login, password, traffic volume, access period) and click the Confirm button

You can now provide the user with access. On the main page, click Node URL or Node QR Code for easier mobile device connection

Configuring User Access Using the Hiddify Client¶

The best way is to use modern clients that support Hysteria 2.

Android:

• Copy the hy2:// link from the H‑UI panel.
• Open the app — it often automatically offers to add the copied profile or tap Import from Clipboard.
• Tap the big connect button.

iOS (iPhone/iPad):

Apps: Hiddify (free), Shadowrocket (paid, universal combo) or Streisand.

Instructions:

• Copy the link from the panel.
• In Hiddify just tap Add profile from clipboard. In Shadowrocket: upon opening it will detect the link in the clipboard and offer to add the server.
• Toggle the connection switch.

On Desktop (Windows, macOS, Linux)¶

• Download Hiddify Next for your OS.
• Launch it, tap + (New Profile) and select Import from Clipboard.
