Quick answer

To install **FiveM with txAdmin**, prepare a high-clock VPS, download the FXServer build that includes txAdmin, generate the license key on the Cfx portal tied to the IP, and open the game ports in the firewall. Then build the server.cfg and manage everything from the txAdmin web panel. Heavy RP calls for a strong CPU and Anti-DDoS.

## What FiveM and txAdmin are[](https://streethosting.com.br/en/guides/vps/install-fivem-server-txadmin-vps#o-que-e)

FiveM is the platform that runs GTA RP servers. FXServer is the server program, and txAdmin is the web panel that comes with it so you can install, configure and monitor everything from the browser. Since RP is demanding, it is worth reviewing [how to size a VPS for FiveM](https://streethosting.com.br/en/guides/vps/fivem-server-sizing-ryzen-vps) first.

## Prepare the VPS[](https://streethosting.com.br/en/guides/vps/install-fivem-server-txadmin-vps#preparar-vps)

* VPS with high clock speed per core
* Updated system and a dedicated user
* Firewall opening only the FiveM ports
* Disk space for resources and logs

Lock down access by following the [UFW firewall](https://streethosting.com.br/en/guides/vps/ufw-firewall-ubuntu-vps) guide before you expose the server.

## Install FXServer[](https://streethosting.com.br/en/guides/vps/install-fivem-server-txadmin-vps#instalar)

1. Download the recommended FXServer build with txAdmin.
2. Put it in a dedicated folder with its own user.
3. Start FXServer to bring up the txAdmin panel.
4. Open the panel in your browser on the port shown.

Never run the server as root. A compromised game process with full power hands over the entire VPS. Always use a dedicated user without unnecessary privileges.

## Ports and license[](https://streethosting.com.br/en/guides/vps/install-fivem-server-txadmin-vps#portas-e-licenca)

Generate the server key on the Cfx portal, tied to the VPS IP, and enter it in the configuration. Then open only the ports FiveM uses for the game and for txAdmin. Keeping everything else closed lowers the risk of attack.

## Manage it from the panel[](https://streethosting.com.br/en/guides/vps/install-fivem-server-txadmin-vps#administrar)

With txAdmin running, you build the server.cfg, load the city resources, restart and track performance from the panel. For the hardware foundation that RP demands, take a look at the [Ryzen VPS](https://streethosting.com.br/en/vps/ryzen) and the [FiveM hosting in Brazil](https://streethosting.com.br/en/fivem) page.

## Frequently asked questions

What is txAdmin?

It is the web panel that ships with FXServer. With it you install, configure, restart and monitor your FiveM server from the browser, without relying only on commands. It makes life much easier for anyone running GTA RP.

Does FiveM need a strong CPU?

Yes. RP with many players and heavy scripts depends on high per-core performance. A high-clock CPU delivers a better experience than lots of slow cores, which is why Ryzen is so widely used.

Which ports do I need to open?

FiveM uses specific ports for the game and for the txAdmin panel. Open only those ports in the firewall and keep everything else closed to reduce the attack surface.

How do I avoid downtime at peak hours?

Size CPU and RAM with headroom, use Anti-DDoS at the edge and monitor resource use. RP cities attract attacks, so network protection is an essential part of running one.
