Bridging VPN-connection to physical NIC
Posted: Mon Feb 13, 2017 11:49 am
Hi,
I want to provide VPN-connection to a embedded device. I have the server and client up and running, and communicating the way I want.
On the client side I run Windows 10. I use a laptop and connect over Wi-Fi. I need the win10-client to initiate the connection, but the connection must be "bridged" from the VPN to the embedded device connected to the laptops ethernet-nic. I need to maintain layer 2 communication.
I was praying that just using the bridge-function in Windows to do this, but that does not seem to work.
(switching to Linux on the client-side could be an option)
