Syntax Description

Keyword
Description

(Optional) Resets auto-trust to its default value.

off

Disables auto-trust. Either off or on is required unless no is specified.

on

Enables auto-trust. Either off or on is required unless no is specified.

Defaults

IslandExpress auto-trust is disabled by default.

Usage Guidelines

When a VPN is created by IslandExpress, its status is set to "unapproved" by default. The VPN is disabled until the unapproved status is removed manually using no vpn peer unapproved. This provides a safeguard in case the IslandExpress shared secret (see vpn server secret) is compromised.

If auto-trust is set to on, VPNs created by IslandExpress are enabled immediately. This should be used with caution since anyone with knowledge of the IslandExpress shared secret can establish a working VPN connection to the Island.
