How to set up Xray VPN with BeAdmin
Xray is a modern tool for creating a VPN. It helps bypass restrictions, protects your internet traffic, and increases privacy. In the BeAdmin control panel, the VLESS protocol is used — a lightweight and fast authentication mechanism that provides reliable and secure connections.
With BeAdmin, you choose the country and tariff plan for your server, manage devices and users, and stay independent from third-party VPN providers.
ℹ️ Info
Using your own server is more cost-effective: the price for additional connections is lower than with commercial VPNs, your bandwidth is not shared with other clients, and the risk of blocking is minimal. VPN providers often use one server to serve hundreds or even thousands of users, which makes their traffic suspicious.
If you have a clean server with the BeAdmin panel installed, follow these steps.
Step 1. Install Xray VPN
Go to the Xray VPN section and click Install.
The panel will automatically download and configure all required dependencies. Once the installation is complete, the user management page will open.
Step 2. Create a user
Open the Users section and click Create user. In the window that opens, enter an email address.
⚠️ Warning
The email address is used only as an identifier. You can enter any address, even a non-existent one. If you provide a real address, VPN configuration settings for the client app can be sent to it.
Click Create. The user will appear in the list and be ready to connect.
Step 3. Connect a device to Xray VPN
To connect, use any compatible client, for example Hiddify / Streisand (available for Android and iOS). A list of other popular apps is provided at the end of this article, but you may use alternatives.
If the application is not yet installed on the device (smartphone, computer, or tablet), download and install it first.
To get the connection details, go to the Users section, click Settings next to the desired user. The following options will be available:
- a link for importing into the app;
- a QR code;
- sending the configuration file via e-mail.
ℹ️ Info
To send configuration via e-mail, you need to set up a mail server or an SMTP relay. Links to setup guides are available in the Resources section.
Open the VPN client app you installed on the device and add the configuration — either scan the QR code or paste the configuration link.
Next, start the VPN in the app. On iOS, the system may ask permission to add a VPN profile — confirm it.
To make sure the VPN is working, open any IP check service in your browser, for example https://www.myip.com/. If everything is configured correctly, you will see the country of your VPN server.
Step 4. Add new users
The BeAdmin control panel provides one user for free. If you need more, you can purchase a license and add as many users as required. Additional connections can also be added later.
The more slots you purchase, the lower the cost per connection. Bundle offers are also available, which make it even more cost-effective.
To add new users:
- Go to Account → Servers.
- Select the required server.
- Click New license → Configurator.
- In the VPN section, specify the number of additional users.
- Click Select, then choose a payment method and click Pay.
⚠️ Warning
Currently, a license supports up to 100 additional users per server. If you need more, contact us and we will increase the limits.
