In addition, since I'm new to programming, any comment on my project is also welcome. Another interesting thing I found was pppd but setting up the configuration file was very frustrating. But man vpnagent doesn't provide useful information nor which vpnagent tells me the utility is not installed in my Mac. So I guess it will be like I tell Python to tell system shell to connect to a VPN server.Īs I poking around and I found a command by typing apropos vpn. So I'm now stuck in this first step because I realised establishing a VPN connection seems to be under system level because I can't find pre-written VPN module in python. So I break down the task and think the program may need to connect to one of the server first and after that, run a speed test. This is a self-motivated practicing project so I think I'll stick to Python language. The reason why I want to do this is that I want to write a small program in Python which automatically detects the fastest VPN server among 30 servers. I am looking for a way to connect to a VPN network in terminal.
