Is is possible to have a bridged VPN network, same subnet and internal:

[Brian_D]

Site to Site or Site to Client VPN: Site to clients
Untangle version: 2.6.26-2-untangle-686
Router mode or Bride mode: Router Mode
OpenVPN client's OS: Windows xp and 7
What issues are you experiencing or briefly describe the issue:

I want to know if it is possible to have a bridged VPN with Untangle, I've read that it is possible if you have it installed on top of a Linux OS.

I have OpenVPN in router mode, external address is my public IP

My internal LAN is: 172.25.0.0/22
DHCP: 172.25.1.0 - 172.25.2.255

I would like to, if possible make my Exported VPN network: 172.25.3.0/24 so that they are all on the same subnet. Maybe I am crazy and this isn't possible.

The reason I would like to do this is that I would like to be able to do the following:
1 - Connect to file shares without monkeying with firewall settings on every one of my PCs to include my exported vpn network.
2 - Connect to remote desktop without monkeying with firewall settings on every one of my PCs to include my exported vpn network.
3 - Connect to files shares on devices that are connect via VPN from another device that is connected by VPN
4 - Remote desktop to any device connected to openvpn

Thank you very much for any insight you could provide to me.

Ok, thank you. Do you have any recommendations for me other than turning my firewalls off on my windows computers so that I can connect to file shares and remote desktop?

Also, can I export my current vpn network 172.26.0.0/24 in my list of exported networks so that other vpn clients can see them? Am I able to connect to my vpn clients from with my 172.25.0.0/22 network?

Thanks again for your time and knowledge.

If you have active directory, you can configure the windows firewall via group policy to trust your OpenVPN address pool IP range.

If you don't have active directory, you have to configure each firewall manually.

And yes you can export the address pool to make it possible for VPN users to communicate with each other, as well as enable the LAN network to communicate with them.
