Replace `` with the token obtained from your ngrok account: ```bash ngrok authtoken ``` #### Step 4: Create a Tunnel Create a tunnel for your local server (replace `http://localhost:8080` with your server's URL and port): ```bash ngrok http http://localhost:8080 ``` #### Step 5: Access Your Tunnel URL ngrok will generate a unique URL that forwards traffic to your local server. Access this URL in your web browser to view your server's content. --- Congratulations! You have successfully set up ngrok for tunneling on your Free IPv6 VPS.
