You can do a local bridge on softether.

See Lincoln Lee's excellent article / how to here:

http://linc01n.github.io/blog/2013/05/1 ... al-bridge/


You can also just use the SecureNAT feature to set up the local LAN IPs (which you can do totally within the windows server manager tool - just add your linux server in there, and do it all from there).

Hope that's helpful - feel free to pm me if you need any assistance.

1. create new tap device
2. in softether server config create local bridge to the tap device
3. configure dhcpd for tap interface to provide ip adresses from the desired range

it worked for me

apologies, i have not read carefully enough.
what i saw on the screenshot you provided, however, is local bridging to a virtual network interface - almost the same in linux and windows - and i erroneously assumed this was what you were referring to.
