    In SoftEther VPN, the user can create a local bridge connection between a Virtual Hub and an existing physical LAN with the functions provided in VPN Server and VPN Bridge. (For details, please refer to #3.6#.)Because the performance of the local bridge connection function of VPN Server / VPN Bridge is the same as or better than that when using VPN Client together with the bridge connection function of Windows XP or later/Server 2003/Vista, normally, there is no need to use the bridge connection function on the client side.

    Under special circumstances or when the user wants to create a bridge connection between the Virtual Network Adapter and physical network adapter on the VPN Client side, a bridge connection can be created in the same way as the Virtual Network Adapter of SoftEther 1.0. In these cases, connect the Virtual Network Adapter and the physical network adapter using the same method for creating a bridge connection between two network adapters using the functions of Windows XP/Server 2003/Vista/7/8/Server 2008/Server 2012..
