vzvpn Configuration File

The /etc/vzvpn/vzvpn.conf file is used by the Parallels Support Tool to establish a secure connection (a virtual private network) between your server and the Parallels support server.

The parameters in this file are presented on separate lines in the following format:

< parameter_name >=< parameter_value >

The table below describes these parameters:

Parameter	Description
`REMOTE_HOST`	Mandatory. The hostname or the IP address of the Parallels support server.
`REMOTE_PORT`	Mandatory. The port number of the Parallels support server to be used for establishing a virtual private network (VPN).
`STARTTMO`	Mandatory. The time, in seconds, during which there will be attempts to start the Parallels Support Tool if it could not be started immediately after its launching.
`INACTIVE`	Mandatory. The time of inactivity, in seconds, after which the connection between your server and the Parallels support server will be closed.
`PING`	Mandatory. The time, in seconds, at the end of which the port of the Parallels support server will be pinged in case no packets have been received from the support server during the time specified.
`PING_EXIT`	Mandatory. The time, in seconds, after a lapse of which the connection between your server and the Parallels support server will be closed in case no ping signals or other packets have been received from the support server during this time.
`HTTP_PROXY=hostname[:` `port` `]`	Optional. The hostname or the IP address and the port number of the HTTP proxy server through which a VPN between your server and the Parallels support server is to be established. This parameter overrides the `HTTP_PROXY` parameter set in the `/etc/vz/vz.conf` file on the server. If the `HTTP_PROXY` parameter is not specified in either of the files, the Parallels Support Tool looks for the `http_proxy` environment variable on the server and takes its value for establishing a VPN.
`HTTP_PROXY_USER`	Optional. The user name used by the HTTP proxy server for your authentication.
`HTTP_PROXY_PASSWORD`	Optional. The password of the user specified in the `HTTP_PROXY_USER` parameter and used for your authentication by the HTTP proxy server.

Note: You are not recommended to change any of the aforementioned parameters. Modify them only if you are dead certain of your actions (for example, you have received the corresponding information from Parallels).
