You should also review the other options before deployment, as changing your mind about them later [may require you to deploy a brand new server](https://github.com/trailofbits/algo/blob/master/docs/faq.md#i-deployed-an-algo-server-can-you-update-it-with-new-features). 6. **Start the deployment.** Return to your terminal. In the Algo directory, run `./algo` and follow the instructions. There are several optional features available. None are required for a fully functional VPN server. These optional features are described in greater detail in [here](docs/deploy-from-ansible.md).
