=====Setup a GRE Tunnel for Pterodactyl/Docker=====

If you want to DDOS Protect a Docker Container or a Pterodactyl game server or egg running in a docker container please follow this guide.


Please follow these steps to use these scripts.

**You will also need a DDoS Protected IP which is $3.00/m, read the [[:ddos|DDoS Protection]] page for more information**

**Do not ask for help with them unless you're an active customer, we won't help you and there's a 100% chance you'll get kicked from our community chat.**

**Once this is enabled you will no longer be able to directly connect to your backend server! You must connect through your DDOS protected IP**
