- Installation and Configuration of the Anonymous I2P Network -

What is I2P ? I2P is a computer network layer that allows applications to send messages to each other pseudonymously and securely.
Uses include anonymous web surfing, chatting, blogging and file transfers.

Simply stated since I2P is an anonymous network layer, it is designed so other software can use it for anonymous communication.
As such there are a variety of tools currently available for I2P or in development.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(01): - Download I2P From:
     ( https://www.i2p2.de/ )
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(02): - Install The I2P Package:
    Install the I2P Package to your hard disk.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(03): - Configure Your Firewall For I2P:
    Make sure you allow the JavaSEBinary executable inbound and outbound in your-
    firewall table rules. The reason for this is that I2P uses Java and needs to
    connect to peers for it to work properly. The JavaSEBinary file can be located
    in Windows->System32->Java.exe - it is unfortunate that the writers of this
    great project didn't do a C++ implementation, however securing your firewall
    further by instead only allowing the I2P ports inbound/outbound and not the
    JavaSEBinary executable inbound/outbound would greatly increase your security
    while connecting to this network layer.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(04): - Start I2P:
    Just run the I2P ( Restartable ) executable and if everything was done correctly
    I2P will connect to peers and open a javascript interface web page locally for
    further configuration of your I2P Client. Keep in mind it takes about 2 to 4
    minutes for it to gather enough peers to establish a connection.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(05): - Configuring Software To Use I2P:
    I will only go into configuring your web browser to use I2P.
    Whatever web browser you are using whether it be FireFox, Chrome, Opera, etc..
    Find the network configuration settings interface via the options tab-
    set the HTTP Proxy to 127.0.0.1 and port 4444 for standard unencrypted connections and port 4445 for encrypted connections.
