Overview

An inbound configuration in this panel represents a connection point for VPN services. Each inbound is synchronized with a target host, allowing centralized management of VPN configurations across multiple servers.

Key Features

• Automatic synchronization with target hosts
• Real-time traffic monitoring
• Centralized account management
• Multiple protocol support
• Advanced security options

Understanding Inbounds

Inbound-Host Relationship

Each inbound in the management panel must correspond to an inbound on the target host with a matching key. This relationship ensures:

• Automatic account synchronization
• Traffic monitoring
• Configuration management
• Load balancing capabilities

Supported Protocols

• VLESS (Default)
• VMess
• Trojan
• Shadowsocks

Security Types

• TLS (Default)
• Reality
• None (Not recommended for production)

Configuration Guide

Creating a New Inbound

1. Click the purple CREATE button
2. Fill in required fields:

Field	Description	Example
Remark	Identifiable name	Germany-Frankfurt-A
Key	Unique identifier	1
Port	Connection port	443
Domain	Service domain	de.example.com
Request Host	Request header host	de.example.com
SNI	TLS SNI field	de.example.com
Address	Server address	162.44.132.10
Path	WebSocket path	/ws

3. Configure additional settings:
   • Enable: Activate the inbound
   • Develop: Enable development mode
   • Security: Choose security type
   • Flow: Set traffic flow type
   • Type: Select protocol type
   • Host: Select target host

Synchronization Process

When an inbound is created:

1. System verifies target host availability
2. Checks for matching key on target host
3. Synchronizes configuration
4. Establishes monitoring

Key System

• Each inbound requires a unique key per host
• Keys link panel inbounds to host inbounds
• Used for synchronization and traffic matching

Traffic Synchronization

1. Client connects to inbound
2. Traffic is recorded on host
3. Data syncs to panel
4. Statistics update in real-time

Managing Inbounds

List View Columns

• ID: Unique identifier
• Remark: Descriptive name
• Domain: Service domain
• Key: Sync identifier

• Type: Protocol type
• Enable: Status
• Develop: Development mode
• Modified: Last update

Filtering and Sorting

• Search by remark, domain, or address
• Sort by creation date
• Filter by host
• Filter by status

Actions

• 🗑️ Delete: Remove inbound
• ✏️ Edit: Modify settings

Account Management

Automatic Account Creation

When a user purchases a service:

1. Account created in panel
2. Configuration synced to host
3. Access details generated
4. Traffic monitoring begins

Traffic Monitoring

• Real-time usage tracking
• Bandwidth allocation
• Usage limitations
• Alert systems

Best Practices

Security Recommendations

1. Always use TLS/Reality security
2. Regularly rotate ports
3. Use strong SNI configurations
4. Monitor for unusual traffic

Performance Optimization

1. Balance users across inbounds
2. Monitor server load
3. Use appropriate protocols
4. Configure proper paths

Maintenance Tasks

• Regular configuration review
• Traffic pattern analysis
• Security updates
• Performance monitoring
• Backup configurations

Troubleshooting

Common Issues

Sync Failures

Problem: Inbound not syncing
Solutions:
1. Verify host connection
2. Check key matching
3. Confirm port availability
4. Review security settings

Traffic Monitoring Issues

Problem: Traffic not updating
Solutions:
1. Check host connectivity
2. Verify inbound status
3. Review logging settings
4. Check database connection

Error Messages

Error	Cause	Solution
Key Conflict	Duplicate key on host	Use unique key
Sync Failed	Host unreachable	Check connection
Port in Use	Port already allocated	Change port
