Test Gluetuns ip connection | cut the connection in Docker

Version 1

# Should show IVPN IP

docker exec qbittorrent curl -m 10 https://ifconfig.co


# Kill the tunnel (this should auto reconnect if your settings are set up that way)

docker exec gluetun pkill -f wireguard-go


# MUST timeout now: this shows your connection. If it connects REALLY fast, you may not notice that it ever got cut. 

docker exec qbittorrent curl -m 10 https://ifconfig.co || echo "KILL-SWITCH 100% WORKING — NO LEAK"


Version 2

Cut the vpn connection from Gluetun to your other apps

docker exec gluetun /bin/sh -c "kill \$(cat /tmp/wireguard.pid)"

Now bring the VPN (Gluetun) back up:

docker exec gluetun /bin/sh -c "wg-quick up wg0"
