xui-in-azure.md

Do following steps:

1. Apply a student account of Azure, with @*.edu email:

   • https://azure.microsoft.com/zh-cn/free/students/
   • View balance here:
     • https://www.microsoftazuresponsorships.com/Balance#

2. Start to create a B1S (Linux) server via this page:

   • https://portal.azure.com/#view/Microsoft_Azure_Billing/FreeServicesBlade
   • Must use this entrance. Create with default method would cost money.

3. Config the server and create:

   • Use username and password. (Easy to login.)

4. Wait for the server creation completed, then login in local console:

   ssh <username>@<public_ip>
   

5. Install x-ui:

   sudo su
   bash <(curl -Ls https://raw.githubusercontent.com/vaxilu/x-ui/master/install.sh)
   

   • This would setup x-ui admin, password and login port.

6. Go to azure b1s server info page, and select Network:

   • Allow specified ports, which are used by x-ui login and network traffic forward.

7. Visit <public_ip>:<login_port> in browser.

   • Add device ID and related port in the x-ui inbounds page.
