Getting UDP broadcast over site2site OpenVPN possible?
-
Hi all,
I have a site2site running between site A and site B.
I would like to get some UDP broadcast packages from site A, through the VPN tunnel and to site B.Is this possible - has anyone done this? If so, what will be the best/easiest way?
Thanks.

You'd have to configure OpenVPN to use a tap interface, as broadcasts don't pass through routers.

Yes, I know, but don't want to bridge the remote OpenVPN side. I read that one alternative could be to use an UDP proxy of some sort to solve this. Anyone tried this?

I am testing udp-proxy-2020 at the moment, but it seems that it doesn't work with site2site OpenVPN. It works locally between LANs, but when testing with the OpenVPN-interface it says it doesn't detect any clients. Probably works with a "road warrior" setup (according to the documentation), but need it to work with site2site.
Has anyone tested udp-proxy-2020 and managed to make it work over site2site OpenVPN?
