# Requirements
In order to build on Windows the following tools should be installed:
- Visual Studio. For a minimal install, the command line only build tools can be
downloaded and installed from https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/downloads/#build-tools-for-visual-studio-2017
- Cmake
- (optional) The OpenSSL library. Prebuild binaries can be downloaded from https://slproweb.com/products/Win32OpenSSL.html .
The full version is required (not the "Light" version).
IMPORTANT: in order to skip OpenSSL compilation, edit CMakeLists.txt and replace
OPTION(N2N_OPTION_AES "USE AES" ON)
with
OPTION(N2N_OPTION_AES "USE AES" OFF)
In order to run n2n:
- The TAP drivers should be installed into the system. They can be installed from
http://build.openvpn.net/downloads/releases (search for "tap-windows")
- If OpenSSL has been compiled, the corresponding .dll file should be available
into the target computer
# Build (CLI)
In order to build from the command line, open a terminal window and run the following commands:
```
md build
cd build
cmake ..
MSBuild edge.vcxproj /t:Build /p:Configuration=Release
MSBuild supernode.vcxproj /t:Build /p:Configuration=Release
```
The compiled exe files should now be available under the Release directory.
