Connect to VPN server with SSH once VPN up

Post by DJI » Mon Dec 22, 2014 9:41 pm

Hi,

I need to connect to the VPN Server via SSH once the VPN is up, I do not need to see the whole LAN.

As I only have one network card and that is bridged I cannot connect to it.

Using on a Raspberry PI.

Thank you

Just to be clear this is what I want to achieve:

VPN Client >>>>> INTERNET >>>>>>> VPN Server (Only need to access the server over the VPN)

Thanks.

In the existing virtual hub, create a second bridge to a new tap device. Configure that tap device with DHCP or a static address as though it was on the physical LAN.

SoftEther VPN clients can then SSH into the Raspberry Pi server through the address on the tap interface.
