    SoftEther VPN Bridge is a software product for creating a connection (bridge) between a Virtual Hub at a remote location and a physical network adapter, minus some of the functions of SoftEther VPN Server. With the exception of the differences noted here, the descriptions of SoftEther VPN Server in #3#3. SoftEther VPN Server Manual can be used to understand the use, principles of operation, and management of SoftEther VPN Bridge. For the detailed setup method of SoftEther VPN Bridge, refer to this chapter while replacing all descriptions of VPN Server with VPN Bridge and sevpnserver with sevpnbridge.

    SoftEther VPN Server described in 3. SoftEther VPN Server Manual#3# is a software product that provides VPN server functions to the VPN client computer. This software allows you to place several Virtual Hubs on a single VPN Server so VPN Client or VPN Bridge can establish a VPN connection to a Virtual Hub over the network from a remote location. In addition, this software comes with a function for connecting a virtual network and physical network using the local bridge function (see #3.6Local Bridges#) ) and SecureNAT function (see #3.7Virtual NAT & Virtual DHCP Servers#), ), which connect a Virtual Hub on VPN Server and a physical network adapter on the computer running VPN Sever.

    ...

    To create a VPN connecting multiple bases on a general scale, as described in # 10.5Build a LAN-to-LAN VPN (Using L2 Bridge)# and #10.6 Build a LAN-to-LAN VPN (Using L3 IP Routing)#, , install VPN Server at one base, install VPN Bridge at the other bases, and create a cascade connection from the Virtual Hub of VPN Bridge to the Virtual Hub of VPN Server, while at the same time creating a local bridge connection between the Virtual Hub and physical network adapter at each base.

    ...

    The Virtual Hub of VPN Bridge can be cascade-connected to a Virtual Hub operating on a separate computer in the same way as a Virtual Hub of VPN Server. For more information about cascade connections, please refer to #3.4.11#.3.4 Virtual Hub Functions.

    ...

    The method for setting up a local bridge is the same as that for VPN Server. For details, please refer to #3.6Local Bridges#..

    ...

    The "BRIDGE" Virtual Hub on VPN Bridge has a virtual NAT function using SecureNAT and a virtual DHCP server function similar to those of VPN Server. You can enable these functions when necessary. For information about using these functions, please refer to #3.7Virtual NAT & Virtual DHCP Servers#..

    For examples of how to use SoftEther VPN with the SecureNAT function of VPN Bridge, please refer to #10.11Exploit SecureNAT for Remote Access into Firewall without Any Permission#..
