Possible using SoftEther merely as l2tp/ipsec client?

Post by hgl » Tue Jun 23, 2015 4:32 am

I have a l2tp/ipsec server already set up (not using softether server), is it possible to use softether client to connect to it? I didn't find docs on how to do that with softether client + vpncmd.

I'm wondering if that's possible to do? What commands should I use in vpncmd?.

Also, is it possible to ask softether client to call a shell script once it has connected to the server (and also when it disconnects)?

Thanks in advance.

As I know the L2TP/IPsec on SoftEther VPN Server is connected using the built-in clients on Android, Windows etc., not using SoftEther VPN Client.

Thanks. So the softether client can only be used to connect softether server?

I guess I have to use xl2tpd after all.
