Building small cloud infrastructure

Post by LonnieTC » Sun Sep 17, 2017 5:18 pm

Greetings All,

I am new to SoftEther but it seems to be exactly what I need to build a small cloud infrastructure that will host docker containers in a distributed topology.

For this little test design I have 4 VPS servers being hosted on the Internet and a 4 node cluster behind a router with a high speed cable modem.

I have just set up the SoftEther server, actually in a docker container from (https://hub.docker.com/r/amary/softether-vpn-server/), on one of the VPS systems and later will be adding more SoftEther servers to cluster that part, but for now I have the single server. I connect to the server via a Windows laptop that is running the GUI server manager.

What I would like to do now is to use the docker container SoftEther client on another VPS to try and establish a VPN so that all of the docker containers on each VPS can see each other through the VPN but I am not clear on how to configure the SoftEther server and client.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated on the next steps for configuration.
Cheers,
Lonnie

Basically, SoftEther VPN Client only can communication.
However, if SoftEther VPN server is in Linux, tap mode localbridge acts like as VPN client.
