Local Bridge on MS Hyper-V

Hi all

At the moment the VPN server is running on a VPS in a Hyper-V cloud. It seems that I can create a local bridge such that after creation it statues becomes "operating" however there is not any bridge connection in "network connections" and the command "netsh bridge show adapter" returns nothing, In fact the only available connection is the original "local area connection". Therefore the clients cannot pass their traffic via the bridge while there is a session for the bridge in virtual hub. (DHCP is running on the virtual HUB )

Local bridge function of VPN Server is different thing from Windows bridging function.

Please try to set MAC spoofing enable on your Hyper-V server.

This setting is called as 'promiscuous mode' in VMware.

If your client connect to the network of data-center, your client may be not assigned a proper IP address from data-center.
Please use virtual NAT instead of local-bridge in VPS.

Thanks, I test secure Virtual Nat and it's very slow!
