02. Pages and Operations

Overview page (/panel/)

Primary purpose:

• Server and Xray health view
• Quick operational actions

Typical actions:

• Restart/stop Xray
• View logs
• Check utilization and throughput

Inbounds page (/panel/inbounds)

Primary purpose:

• Manage listeners and protocol endpoints
• Manage inbound-scoped clients

Core operations:

• Add/edit/delete inbound
• Enable/disable inbound
• Add/edit/delete client
• Bulk add clients
• Reset traffic (client/inbound/global)
• Export URLs/subscription data
• Clone inbound

Operational best practice:

1. Rename/label first.
2. Change one technical setting at a time.
3. Keep one known-good inbound untouched while testing.

Clients page (/panel/clients) - custom extension

Primary purpose:

• Master client profile management
• Multi-inbound assignment orchestration

Core operations:

• Create master client (name, prefix, quota, expiry, ip limit, enabled, comment)
• Assign one or more inbounds
• Update profile and sync assigned inbounds
• Delete master client and remove assignments

Panel Settings (/panel/settings)

Tabs:

• General
• Authentication
• Telegram Bot
• Subscription

Critical controls:

• Session duration
• Admin credentials and 2FA

Xray Configs (/panel/xray)

Tabs:

• Basics
• Routing Rules
• Outbounds
• Reverse
• Balancers
• DNS
• Advanced

Safety workflow:

1. Backup/export first.
2. Small changes only.
3. Save and restart Xray when needed.
4. Check logs immediately.

Frequent operations checklist

• Add new inbound safely:

  1. Create inbound with clear remark and tested config
  2. Add one test client
  3. Verify connectivity
  4. Roll out to users

• Rotate admin credentials:

  1. Change in Authentication tab
  2. Re-login and confirm

• Recover from bad Xray config:

  1. Restore known-good template
  2. Restart Xray
  3. Verify logs/status
