Now you've setup Warcraft 3. Next you need - to setup a virtual LAN -

Setting up a Virtual Lan

In this section I'll show - a guide for setting up ZeroTier. -

Before you continue

Only one person - needs to setup a network. Everyon else can join an existing - network through the network's creator (admin). And once - you've been authorized by the admin you can join/unjoin as you please. - The admin doesn't even need to be in the same game / online. -

Admin | Network Setup

If you want to be the network admin you can - create a network by first creating an account with ZeroTier. You'll need - to supply a verifiable email but that is it. Here is a quick summary of how - to setup. A full guide can be found at - Zero Tiers own setup guide -
- Create a Network
- Hover to Zoom -
-

Your Network ID

Your network ID will be present on the network page. - The example netowrk here is: 17d709436c634b2b. - You will share this with the members. -

Admin | Network Settings

You shouldn't have to do anything - custom, just authorize the users who join your network. This can be done by - either adding them directly, or checking the authorize box. You can add them - from the settings menu at the bottom: -
- Add remove users section
- Hover to Zoom -
-

Member | Download

Note Admins must also join their own - network! Member's first must download the application: Zero Tier 1. -

Member | ZeroTier UI

The ZeroTier UI is just a system-tray icon. Just - right click to perfom any of the actions listed below. (It's the icon - that shares the icon from the website!) -
- ZeroTier Tray Icon
- Hover to Zoom -
-
- ZeroTier Tray Menu
- Hover to Zoom -
You can right click the tray-icon to open the menu. Here you will see - your Node Id. Example: Node ID: 2d213b67f2 -

Member | Add network

To join simply paste the network ID in the form. - You can get the ID from the Network Admin. -
- Join prompt
- Hover to Zoom -
-

Admin | Authorize the Member

The Admin will then need your - Node ID and will authorize you in their network settings. -
- Members View
- Hover to Zoom -
-

Member | Reboot

Now that you've connected and setup I recommend - rebooting here. You can also reboot upon installation too to be safe. -

Member | Verify connectivity

You can open the menu and click - "Show Network" which will show you your connected networks. You - should see Status: OK. You can click the connect - checkbox here to connect/disconnect. Or click the network from the menu - directly. -
- Connection View
- Hover to Zoom
-
-

Admin | Verify everyone is - connected

You can verify the connected - nodes by looking at the network view under Members. You should see Last Seen - "ONLINE" and their Physical IP - this will mean they're - connected successfully. You can add names and descriptions to help manage who - is who in case someone loses connectivity. -

Creating a LAN Game

At this point you should be able to create a LAN game. It will - ask you to install Bonjour services. Click yes. The game may hang for a bit - while this happens, that is normal. Authorize the network firewall popup if - it does. -

Troubleshooting

The network Admin can troubleshoot any connectivity issues by - checking if the Member's are present in their network settings. -

Status: - Request_Configuration

If you are stuck - in this status you can delete the network. Reboot. Then re-add the network - and have the admin re-authorize you if necessary. This may take a few minutes - before you're IP appears in the network settings for the admin. - - -- cgit v1.2.3-54-g00ecf
