External Proxy Server

Caution

This is intended only for experienced developers.

If you choose not to use the integrated proxy server you can self-host an external proxy server (EPS).
To do so, follow the instructions below.

Download

Download the external proxy server through our GitHub.

Install

Run npm install in the EPS directory and wait until it completes.

Configure

Read through all options and their comments inside its config.js file as they are very important for the setup process, adjust them to your setup and preferences.

Run

Run node server.js in the EPS directory and do not close the console window.

Note

You can use pm2 to make sure the EPS runs all the time.

Configure your FiveM server

Add the EPS server’s IP address to the sv_proxyIPRanges property in your server’s configuration file:

server.cfg

set sv_proxyIPRanges "x.x.x.x/32"

Replace x.x.x.x with the EPS server’s IP address. The value is a CIDR range, so /32 matches that single address; widen the suffix (e.g. /24) only if you need to allow a whole subnet.
