    SoftEther VPN Bridge 2.0 can be operated on either 32-bit or 64-bit (x64 version) versions of Windows. For more information about support for 64-bit environments, please refer to #12#.

    While the SoftEther VPN Bridge can perform sufficiently on the FreeBSD platform, there is the disadvantage of not being able to use the local bridge connection function. On the whole, using the SoftEther VPN Bridge on FreeBSD does not pose any problems when the user does not intend to utilize the local bridge function. The FreeBSD version SoftEther VPN Bridge is compatible with the following system architectures. Note that there is a high likelihood that compliant architectures will increase in the future.

    ...

    The VPN Server can deliver sufficient performance on the Solaris platform. Additionally, the local bridge connection function can be used on Build 5220 or later versions of the Solaris version SoftEther VPN Bridge 2.0/ VPN Bridge. This has enabled the Solaris OS to realize VPN Server/ VPN Bridge functionality comparable to that of Windows or Linux operating systems. BecauseAlso, because the Solaris OS operates on hardware using SPARC CPUs, companies possessing this special hardware can effectively utilize their resources as VPN servers by running the SoftEther VPN Bridge on said hardware.

    ...

     

    While the SoftEther VPN Bridge can perform sufficiently on the Mac OS X platform, there is the disadvantage of not being able to use the local bridge connection function. On the whole, using the SoftEther VPN Bridge on Mac OS X does not pose any problems when the user does not intend to utilize the local bridge function. Multithread library performance on the Mac OS X may be inferior to that of other operating systems, so we recommend using other OSs when the SoftEther VPN Bridge is to be used in a high load environment.

    • PowerPC (32-bit mode)
    • PowerPC G5 (64-bit mode)
    • x86 (32-bit mode, Mac OS for Intel CPU)
    • x64 (64-bit mode, Mac OS for Intel CPU)

      5.1.7 Limitations A number of operating system limitations exist for the SoftEther VPN Bridge . While these limitations may be described in other areas of this manual, it is also possible that other technically difficult OS and hardware architecture-dependent issues may exist. Moreover, SoftEther VPN Project does not guarantee the operational stability of the SoftEther VPN Bridge on all operating systems. Please refer to #12.3# for details on our recommended operating systems and system configurations.
