Pre-requisites
To successfully follow this guide, you should have:

Configuration Steps
After you obtain your private Perimeter 81 gateway, set up a VPN gateway for the Private Space with the following command:
* Shell
Copy ```
heroku spaces:vpn:connect \
--name perimeter81 \ --ip PUBLIC_IP_OF_YOUR_VPN_GATEWAY \ --cidrs '10.255.248.0/21' \ --space SPACE
Setting up the gateway takes a few minutes. Use the Wait command to wait for the gateway to be ready:
* Shell
Copy ```
heroku spaces :vpn :wait --space SPACE perimeter81
When the gateway is ready, get the configuration with:
* Shell
Copy ```
heroku spaces :vpn :info --space SPACE perimeter81
This returns a table containing all the details you need to configure Perimeter 81. Here is an example response:

Verifying the Setup
After following the above steps, your tunnel should be active.
To verify, go to your Perimeter 81 dashboard, locate the tunnel you just created, and check the tunnel status.
It should indicate that the tunnel is "Up", signifying a successful connection.
Next, connect to your network using the Perimeter 81 agent and attempt to access one of the resources in your environment.
