Next up would be to add physical ethernet interfaces to the bridge device. brctl addbr adds the bridge br0, and the addif command joins the tap1 device to it. brctl is the command to use to manipulate bridge devices. You run this on both hosts (Notice that I didn’t assign an IP). Ssh -f -w 1:1 -o Tunnel=ethernet hostname trueīrctl addbr br0 brctl addif tap1 ifconfig tap1 up ifconfig br0 up You could also use this functionality to set up the bridge on the remote end, but I’m not getting into that right now. It needs a command to fork, though, so you can just use a dummy command such as true to get it to work. If you’d like it to relinquish the shell after the tunnel is established, you can use the -f option to tell it to fork into the background. This form will keep the ssh session open in the foreground. We use Tunnel=ethernet to set up a layer 2 tunnel. The -o option is for specifying a config file option on the command line. The -w option sets the name of the TAP device on either host (here, tap1 will be created on both ends). Do this on both computers Ĥ) You have installed the bridge-utils package, or otherwise have the brctl command available to you, on both computers.

Use the sysctl command to set this option: sysctl -w _forwarding=1 also, add the line _forwarding=1 to your /etc/nf file for the setting to stick after you reboot.

This means: on the system level, root has a password Ģ) in the sshd_config file of the host that’s running the ssh daemon, the options PermitTunnel yes and PermitRootLogin yes are set ģ) ip forwarding is enabled in the kernel. (sorry – your credentials on both computers must allow you to create the TAP device). On the basis of mention I included the important parts of the source below.ġ) both computers must have root login enabled. Therefore I see no reason to do without sending machines to sleep. There is a fancy way to build a Layer 2 tunnel with SSH, and with this WOL should work well. This means configuring the VPN gateway/finding an option, to forward broadcast traffic from VPN remote clients to the local network. So routing it is really straightforward, the issue may lie with broadcasting it correctly from the target VPN gateway. As long as the VPN client has the correct routes, it can send a broadcast packet such as 192.168.1.255 (a broadcast address) correctly to the VPN gateway across the internet. Most implementations of the magic packet use UDP port 9 although this really does not matter as long as it is routed correctly and transmitted on the same broadcast domain as the target computer. So essentially it becomes a matter of getting a regular routable packet to the target host with the "magic" sequence inside its payload. The reason for this is the "magic" sequence can be anywhere within the payload. Yes the WOL magic packet is defined within the constrains of layer 2 but this does not mean it cannot be contained inside a network and transport protocol entity which can then be used to route it across the VPN. You can do this, but that extra_vpn_equipment_money you don't want to spend would be NAT-ed into some workstation_configuration_sweat.Old thread but I wanted to chime in because it is still the top rated search result for "wol over vpn".

Step 4: if you don't NAT you have to add on Fortigate static routes for the remote office network and also firewall rule on the ssl.root interface->to->HQ_internal. Here is a catch: you will either NAT this traffic with a source of your SSL_IP_pool or you can let it this way.

Step 3: you will have to enable Routing&Remote Service on the machine you use SSL VPN client (I assume you will use a Windows platform, although Linux will work better for this), so that traffic from that location will be routed from lan interface to the VPN_interface.

Step 2: you will add a static (persistent route) on all stations (from the remote office), that for the HQ destination would have to reach through the machine connected at Step 1. You will receive an IP address from the SSL_VPN_pool. Step 1: you connect that machine (from remote office) to the headquarter. This is because the operating system on the machine you want to use SSL VPN client will have to deal with all the traffic, and that machine will have to somehow prove router&firewall capabilities. You can do this in theory, but you will need a good client machine to do that and by good, I mean a good Windows installation.
