How to Stop DHCP requests over the VPN

Post by bapo16 » Sun Jul 12, 2015 9:34 am

I have two local networks, both in the same range, 192.168.0.x

If a user connects to office 1 where the VPN server is then they get a DHCP from my local DHCP server and get the right Gateway.

If a user connects to Office 2 where the Client is then they get a DHCP from either the DHCP in Office 1 or in office 2 and therefore if they got it from Office 1 they get the wrong gateway and the internet connection is very slow.

Is there s way to stop ARP requests from going over the VPN?

I am not a linux guy, and both sites are running Windows OS servers.

Try to filter UDP port 67 and 68 on the hub, on either side or both.

Please increase metric value of virtual NIC of the client.
