protonvpn-cli-connect: Connect to ProtonVPN using the fastest server available.
$ protonvpn-cli connect --fastest
try on your machine

The command "protonvpn-cli connect --fastest" is used to establish a connection with the ProtonVPN service using the ProtonVPN command-line interface (CLI). Here's an explanation of each component:

  • "protonvpn-cli": This refers to the ProtonVPN CLI application. It is a tool provided by ProtonVPN to manage and control their VPN service through the command line.

  • "connect": This is the command within the CLI used to establish a connection to the ProtonVPN servers.

  • "--fastest": This is an optional argument that instructs the ProtonVPN CLI to connect to the fastest available server. Rather than manually selecting a specific server, the CLI will automatically choose the server that offers the best performance in terms of latency and speed.

By running this command, the ProtonVPN CLI will establish a connection to the ProtonVPN service using the fastest server available.
