Hi everyone. I need your help.

I'm confused that Softether VPN Server just can support DHCP dynamic for user who connect to VPN Server. But i want to assign a static ip for each users when i create them. Can we do that ?

Best Regards

You can use tap device and assign static ip with your own dhcp server in your operating system, making your configuration more flexible, not limited those features supported by softether vpn.

To add to kh_tsang's helpful advice, you would also have to be running the server in bridge mode for the client to talk directly to the local network where the DHCP server is located.

Bridge is only needed when you are bridging the virtual hub and your LAN. If your VPN server acts as a router(doing nat or not doesn't matter), I think using tap device is a better choice than SecureNAT because your clients will be able to access the server itself after connecting the vpn.
