# Connecting

To get connected to a vpn server on Pritunl an organization, user and server must be created.

### Creating Organization and User

To create an organization click *Add Organization* from the *Organization* page in the web console. Then click *Add User* an email address and user pin can optionally be included.

### Creating Server

Once the organization and user have been created go to the *Servers* page and click *Add Server*. By default a random udp port and random vpn network will be selected. The network should not conflict with a local network on your client computer and also be large enough for all users that will be attached to the server. The dns server will automatically be set to Google's public dns server. Once the server is created click *Attach Organization* to and attach the organization created earlier to the server. Then click *Start Server* to start the vpn server.

### Configuring Server Routes

Server routes control what traffic will be tunneled over the vpn server. By default a server will include the `0.0.0.0/0` route. This route will tunnel all internet traffic over the vpn server. To only route a local network on the vpn server first remove the `0.0.0.0/0` route and click *Add Route* to add the local network route such as `192.168.0.0/24`.

### Downloading User Profile

After the server has been created the user profile can be downloaded on the *Users* page by clicking the download button or profile links button on the right side of a user. The profile can then be imported into the Pritunl client or any other OpenVPN client.

### User Profile Links

Profile links allow downloading user profiles in different formats using temporary links. The uri link can be used to import the profile directly from the Pritunl client.
