SoftEther Client Ports Questions and Suggestions

Post by officialh12 » Sun Apr 28, 2019 5:56 pm

I understand 9930 is for tools like vpncmd, but 1. If I disable remote management of the client, I would recommend you change the lister address to 127.0.0.1:9930 instead of 0.0.0.0:9930. 2. There should be a way to tell it to only allow management over the VPN connection, then only bind to that IP instead of 0.0.0.0 (any). 3. What are the two other listening ports, one is on the same process as 9930 socket listener, the other looks like it's process id -1 of the owner of 0.0.0.0:9930. They seem to be greater than 40000 and random ports. They are listening on 0.0.0.0 as well, can they be set to 127.0.0.1 or bind accordingly as well based on what I mentioned above?

By default, the client refuses connections from the remote host.
It can be changed in settings.
