+# Dockerised Transmission over VPN
+
+This setup allows to have a VPN server running, for downloading all your Linux ISOs over a VPN.
+
+This works by using the amazing gluetun container and giving it a name `container_name:vpn` and referencing that name in all the containers where we want to go through a VPN by setting `network_mode: "container:vpn"`.
+The two containers don't have to be in the same docker-compose file.
+
+All the traffic is then routed thought the VPN container, where also the ports then are set.
+
+Many vpn providers are supported, just look at the gluetun docs.
+
