Post-install work

After running the installer on windows, simply click on the "Run I2P" button which will bring up the router console, which has further instructions.

On Unix-like systems, I2P can be started as a service using the "i2prouter" script, located in the directory you selected for I2P. Changing to that directory in a console and issuing "sh i2prouter status" should tell you the router's status. The arguments "start", "stop" and "restart" control the service. The router console can be accessed at its usual location. For users on OpenSolaris and other systems for which the wrapper (i2psvc) is not supported, start the router with "sh runplain.sh" instead.

When installing for the first time, please remember to adjust your NAT/firewall if you can, bearing in mind the Internet-facing ports I2P uses, described here among other ports. If you have successfully opened your port to inbound TCP, also enable inbound TCP on the configuration page.

Also, please review and adjust the bandwidth settings on the configuration page, as the default settings of 32 KBps down / 16 KBps up are fairly slow.

If you plan to use I2P to access the standard Internet via an outproxy, see the FAQ for information on setting the outproxy address. The outproxies configured in the 0.6.1.33 release are no longer up.

Updates from earlier releases:

Both automatic and manual upgrades are available for the release.

If you are running 0.6.1.31 or 0.6.1.32, your router should detect the new release, to upgrade simply click the 'Update Available' link on your router console when it appears.

If you are running 0.6.1.30 or earlier, please see instructions for important information about how to configure your router to automatically receive the release.

  1. If you have configured your router following the instructions above, you should see a link on your router console allowing you to download and install the new release by just clicking on that link.
  2. Alternately, you can use the manual method specified below.

Updates from earlier releases (manual method):

  1. Download i2pupdate_0.6.1.33.zip (SHA1 8f0baefd50ee87bd876d25ca4af38479c0b2599b sig) to your I2P installation directory and rename as i2pupdate.zip. (alternately, you can get the source as above and run "ant updater", then copy the resulting i2pupdate.zip to your I2P installation directory). You do NOT need to unzip that file.
  2. Click "Graceful restart"
  3. Grab a cup of coffee and come back in 11 minutes
