Step-by-Step Guide to Performing a CLASH Network Test

1. Install CLASH

   • Download CLASH from the official Microsoft website or trusted developer resources.
   • Follow the installation instructions to add it to your system.

2. Configure Network Test Client

   • Open CLASH and go to Settings > Network Tests > Start.
   • Set the test client URL to a suitable address (e.g., a known one or use a fake URL).
   • Configure the IP address configuration in the network configuration file (e.g., network.conf), setting the source IP, destination IP, and subnet information.

5. Start the Test Server

   • Run the command CLASH Test Server - Start - IP address [configured IP] in the command prompt or PowerShell.

6. Access Network Configuration

   • After starting the test server, check the network configuration file to verify all IP addresses and configurations are correct.
   • Troubleshoot any issues by adjusting configurations and repeating the test.

7. Verify Results

   • Examine the test results to ensure everything worked as expected.
   • If issues arise, adjust configurations and restart the test server.
