It allows users to connect to VPN servers, disconnect, check connection status, manage account settings, and perform other VPN-related operations. This tool is useful for scripting VPN connections or using the VPN service in environments without a graphical user interface. It leverages the same underlying technology as the graphical Mozilla VPN application, ensuring consistency in features and security.
The command focuses on providing essential VPN functionality through easily accessible commands, promoting user privacy and security. Regular updates maintain compatibility with the Mozilla VPN service and incorporate security improvements.

Some features available in the graphical application may not be accessible through the command-line interface.
