VIPs tied to server operations
VIP access is easier to manage when it lives near player history and server administration. RustCommander keeps that workflow inside the same panel.
VIP management
Rust VIP management built into the admin panel.
RustCommander gives server owners a focused place to manage VIP roles, group mapping, player assignments, expiry dates, and internal notes.

How RustCommander helps.
Focused context for the admin workflow behind this page, written for server owners who need clarity before they act.
// 02
Roles, expiry, and notes
Admins can record who has access, which group they belong to, when it expires, and any internal notes needed for support or renewals.
// 03
How VIP roles map to Oxide and uMod groups
In Rust, VIP perks are delivered through permission group membership in Oxide or uMod. RustCommander lets server owners create VIP role categories and map them directly to the corresponding Oxide/uMod groups, so granting access from the panel immediately reflects in the game.
// 04
Setting up VIP management for the first time
New server owners typically manage VIP sales via Discord DMs and manually run RCON commands to grant group access. RustCommander replaces this with a structured list of VIP holders, expiry dates, per-buyer notes, and one-click RCON grant actions — keeping VIP operations next to the rest of server administration.
FAQ
Questions admins ask first.
Short answers for the search intents behind this workflow.
How do Rust VIP groups work?
Most Rust VIP perks are handled through Oxide or uMod permission groups. A player is added to a group, and server plugins use that group to grant perks.
Can RustCommander track VIP expiry dates?
Yes. RustCommander keeps VIP assignments, expiry dates, role mapping, player notes, and group actions in the admin panel.
Run this workflow from the panel.
Open RustCommander, add your first server, install the Oxide / uMod bridge, and keep RCON, players, maps, plugins, logs and VIP roles in one place.
