===============

This plan is a kind of one-click VPS feature at Somagu.  Using this plan
you can create your own Shadowsocks Server immediately when its all
configuration is completed automatically.

   section.

How to access
-------------

When 'Shadowsocks VPS' is being created, it automatically sets up everthing

the connection information at "Application" section at your VPS configuration
menu.  For example it's as follows:

IP, port and Password could be different depending on its setup.

How to change
-------------

.. warning::

   If you change your configuration manually, Somagu UI doesn't know its
   changes so you should change your configuration at Shadowsocks client.

Configuration
^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Shadowsocks Server's configuration file is at
``/etc/shadowsocks/config.json`` and its default configuration is as
follows:

.. code-block:: json

   {
       "server": "0.0.0.0",
       "server_port": "1080",
       "password": "xoaE8i4S",
       "timeout": 300,
       "method": "aes-256-cfb"
   }

Its password would be different per each VPS and randomly generated.

Start/Stop
^^^^^^^^^^

Your shadowsocks server is controlled by systemd.  So please use
``systemctl`` command to start / stop your server.

.. code-block:: bash

   # systemctl start ssserver
   # systemctl stop ssserver
