### NordVPN
Starting 27 June 2023, the required user credentials are no longer your NordVPN login details but need to be generated in the user control panel, under Services → NordVPN. Scroll down and locate the Manual Setup tab, then click on Set up NordVPN manually and follow instructions. Copy your service credentials and re-sync NordVPN configuration inside Vopono.
### AzireVPN
For AzireVPN port forwarding is only possible for Wireguard and can be enabled by using `--port-forwarding`. This will create a port forwarding mapping for the current Wireguard device for 30 days.
After 30 days you will need to restart vopono to re-create the port forwarding mapping.
Note vopono attempts to delete the created mapping when vopono is closed, but this may not always succeed. However, it will use an existing mapping for the chosen device and server pair, if one still exists on AzireVPN's side.
Note AzireVPN sometimes has some issues with rate limiting when generating the OpenVPN config files.
