How to install a plugin in github softether

[apl]

Hi

I'm new to OPNsense, managed to install and get the basic firewall working, I would like to add softether plugin. I'm unable to find any documentation on how to go about it.

https://github.com/opnsense/plugins/tree/master/security/softether

Appreciate any help.

Thank you.

It appears softether is currently only available if you are on the dev path.

[apl]

Thank you for the answer.
How can I still install softether without going to the developer branch?

You can also install on the production branch.
Via CLI:

pkg install os-softether-devel

There is only a start button for managing the server. The rest is done via the usual fat client since I don't want to double the work.

Feedback would be nice, then I could release it to stable :)

[apl]

Thank you for the answer.

Installed!
Will it start automatically after server reboot?

[mimugmail]

When you Enabled it via VPN - Softether it will autostart.

[apl]

Thanks for the answer.
will it be run as root?
I need a bridge function.

Bridge is unsupported in FreeBSD if I remember correctly ... :/

[apl]

As I understand it from the link I published above.
There is support.

[mimugmail]

If I remember correctly when installing the software the comes a pkg message saying brdige is unsupported?

[apl]

did not pay attention to it.
Check, I will write in this thread about the result.

[mimugmail]

Thx, appreciated :)

Set up a bridge.
Remote PC, received ip, gateway, DNS via DHCP.
But on the remote PC there is no access to the local network, the gateway does not flicker.
Ping only wan ip opnsense.

Do I understand correctly that it is already necessary to configure the opnsense firewall?
Can the bridge function be considered working?

Can you try this Advanced Nat mode or similar?

[apl]

I did not understand you.
Enable NAT on the softether switch?
