Intro

I2P

I2P stand for (”Invisible Internet Project”) is a anonymous network. It's a computer network layer that allows applications to send messages to each other pseudonymously and securely.

System requirements

Java

To correctly work I2P needs Java, we can download and install it, following the web link below.

NAT

We now have to set up the NAT, on our router to allow 23156 TCP and UDP ports to be correctly redirected to our I2P host (192.168.1.10).

Firewall (here with the Windows Firewall)

Command line

PS C:\Users\Administrator> netsh advfirewall firewall add rule name="IN_I2P_TCP_23156" dir=in action=allow protocol=TCP localport=23156
PS C:\Users\Administrator> netsh advfirewall firewall add rule name="IN_I2P_UDP_23156" dir=in action=allow protocol=UDP localport=23156
PS C:\Users\Administrator> netsh advfirewall firewall add rule name="OUT_I2P_TCP_23156" dir=out action=allow protocol=TCP localport=23156
PS C:\Users\Administrator> netsh advfirewall firewall add rule name="OUT_I2P_UDP_23156" dir=out action=allow protocol=UDP localport=23156
