Steam requires a GSLT to verify the ownership of a dedicated server and to ensure it remains visible in the public server browser. Without this authentication, players may have difficulty finding your server, and you won&#8217;t be able to build a consistent community. Follow these steps to generate and apply your GSLT using the GGServers panel.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 1: Access the GGServers Panel<\/h3>\n<p>First, log in to your account at the <a href=\"https:\/\/panel.ggservers.com\/\">GGServers Control Panel<\/a>. Select your Insurgency server from the dashboard to begin the configuration process.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 2: Stop Your Server<\/h3>\n<p>Before modifying authentication settings, you must <strong>Stop<\/strong> your server. This ensures that the new login token is properly integrated into the server&#8217;s launch parameters during the next startup sequence.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"121\" height=\"56\" class=\"wp-image-17502\" src=\"https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-32.png\" alt=\"How to stop your Insurgency server\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-32.png 121w, https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-32-50x23.png 50w, https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-32-60x28.png 60w, https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-32-100x46.png 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 121px) 100vw, 121px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Stop the server before updating GSLT settings.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 3: Navigate to Server Settings<\/h3>\n<p>Look for the navigation sidebar on the left side of the dashboard.
