## Settings 

### Account & Subscription

* **Subscription**: This is where you paste your **Subscription URL**. Click **Update** to refresh the server list.

* **Account**: Various information regarding your 12VPX account.

### Appearance

*Linux, Mac and Windows only.*

Allow you to select a language and color theme.

### Network

* **Capture Mode**: Selects how traffic is captured. 
   * **TPROXY**: Preferred on Linux and OpenWRT. Supports Full Tunnel, Exclude local China, AI Routing and Rocket Config modes.
   * **TUN**: Preferred on all other platforms. Supports Full Tunnel, Exclude local China, AI Routing and Rocket Config modes.
   * **Proxy Only**: Does not capture anything, but acts solely as a proxy. Supports **Full Tunnel** mode only. 
* **Restore Connection on Startup**: Remembers whether you wanted to be connected or not, and acts accordingly.
* **LAN Proxy Access**: Creates a proxy on your LAN that other devices can use. Typically used for game handelds/consoles.

* **DNS Leak Protection**: Tries to prevent leaking DNS requests to non-VPN DNS servers.
   * **Full Tunnel**: All requests, except for domains listed in **Exclusions**, use VPN DNS.  
   * **Exclude local China**: 
      * **Enabled**: Chinese domains use Chinese DNS. Non-Chinese or unknown domains use VPN DNS. 
      * **Disabled**: All domains use Chinese DNS.
   * **AI Routing**: Like Full-Tunnel, but the AI may additionally query Chinese DNS during its learning process.
   * **Rocket Config**: Like Full-Tunnel, unless the Rocket Config prescribes otherwise.
* **LAN Access**: Allows other computers on your LAN to remote-control your 12VPX NEO.

### Routing Rules

* **Router Mode**: This mode should be enabled on OpenWRT routers or PCs that act as dedicated routers. If you're unsure, leave it **disabled**.
* **Exclusions**: Want to make sure a domain name or IP address **never** uses the VPN? Add it to this list.
* **Inclusions**: Want to make sure a domain name or IP address **always** uses the VPN? Add it to this list.
* **What goes through the VPN**: The 12VPX NEO app can operate in 4 different modes:
  * **Full Tunnel**: Everything goes through the VPN.
  * **Exclude local China**: Chinese sites and addresses stay off the VPN. Everything else goes through it.
  * **AI Routing**: *Available on Linux, Mac and Windows only.* Decides per connection and learns as it goes. Built for use from inside China.
  * **Rocket Config**: An imported rule list decides, including what happens to traffic it does not name. 

### Remote Control

If you enabled remote control in the **Network** settings, this is where you configure a username and password.
