What's the feature 🧐

Pure VPN allows for static port forwarding. Can it get added to the list of port-forwarding-enabled VPN providers?

I believe you can use custom provider configuration!

I tried to do custom but I might have done it wrong. This is the config I am using but something is off about it. Was able to connect yesterday but today it is having issues.

EDIT: I was able to get the connection working again. Still not sure about getting the port forwarding working.

For non-native integrations where you have a designated forwarded port from your VPN provider, you can allow it by adding it to the environment variable FIREWALL_VPN_INPUT_PORTS.

Enter the port you opened on the purevpn website as a variable.
