Unlocking the Power of ClawCloud: A Step-by-Step Guide to Setting Up CDN with Free Cloud Servers

In this article, we explore how to effectively utilize ClawCloud's free cloud servers to set up a proxy protocol with the aim of achieving optimal CDN selected IPs. By leveraging two no-interaction scripts, this guide provides a detailed walkthrough to get you started on your journey toward efficient and effective internet usage with ClawCloud servers.

Getting Started with ClawCloud

ClawCloud is a popular service for those looking to maximize their cloud server experience. First, head to the ClawCloud website to get started. You'll need to register for an account using your GitHub credentials. This is a straightforward process and it allows you to gain access to a free service for 180 days along with $5 per month in credits. Once registered, log in and explore the various server options available.

Choosing the Right Server Location

Upon logging in, you'll be presented with several countries to choose from, including Singapore, Germany, and the USA. For this tutorial, let’s select Germany. It tends to have slightly higher latency but less traffic compared to other locations, making it ideal for configuration.

Setting Up Your Cloud Server

1. Create a New Service: Click on "devbox," then "Create Service." Assign a name and choose the most cost-effective CPU (1 core) and Memory (2 GB), equating to approximately $0.27 per day.

2. Install Node.js: Once the service is initiated, select Node.js as your operating system. You can stick to the default port, usually 8080, and click on "Create Service" to get started.

Deploying the First No-Interaction Script

Eager to streamline your setup, we’ll now employ a no-interaction script. This means you can input your UUID, port, and domain just once at the beginning. Follow these steps:

1. Access the SSH Terminal: After the successful service creation, you'll receive a public address. Open SSH and begin setting up your script.

2. Utilize the VLESS Script: Locate the VLESS script from my GitHub project. This script should allow you to proceed without needing repetitive inputs.

3. Configure the Script: Paste the script and adjust the UUID (create one using V2RayN), the port (defaulting to 8080), and ensure the server domain is correctly specified. Run the script, and wait for the installation to complete.

Testing the Connection

Once installation is complete, you can check your nodes by entering your public address followed by your UUID. Successful entries will yield a VLESS single-node sharing link. Utilize this link within the V2RayN configuration file to establish a connection.

Implementing Cloudflare Workers for CDN

If you find that your IP gets blocked, setting up a Cloudflare Workers reverse proxy is a smart move:

1. Navigate to Cloudflare: Open the Cloudflare website and access Workers Pages. Click on "Create" and follow the prompts to set up a simple Workers script.

2. Edit and Deploy Your Code: Modify the Workers script to include your server domain correctly. After you deploy the script, access the worker’s URL to verify its functionality.

3. Linking with V2RayN: Take the Cloudflare Workers address and integrate it into your V2RayN configuration. Ensure that the masking domain reflects this same address.

Exploring Additional Configurations

Feeling adventurous? Feel free to clone the node and create multiple setups. It's beneficial to experiment with additional ports, both 80 and 443, incrementally changing configurations to find what suits your needs best.

Implementing the Second No-Interaction Script

Now, let’s tackle the second no-interaction script setup using Argo:

1. Delete the Existing Server: Depending on your needs, you might want to remove the previous setup to save resources.

2. Create a New Server: As before, name your server and select the operating system you wish to run. Ensure your configurations reflect your requirements for a seamless operation.

3. Select the Argo Script: This time, opt for the second Argo temporary domain script, following similar steps as before.

Concluding Thoughts

The flexibility of the ClawCloud server paired with the right scripts can streamline your proxy setup significantly. By utilizing CDN and different IPs, you can enhance your online experience and bypass various connectivity obstacles. Remember, the more you experiment and explore features, the better your server's performance will be. Happy configuring, and until next time, keep experimenting with your ClawCloud server setups!
