|
Standalone SoftEther VPN client written in Go. Connects to SoftEther VPN servers using the native protocol over TLS, with built-in DHCP, automatic reconnection, and route management.
|
|
|
|
## Features
|
|
|
|
- Native SoftEther protocol (TLS + HTTP handshake + TCP block framing)
|
|
- Built-in DHCP client (raw Ethernet frame construction through the VPN tunnel)
|
|
- Automatic reconnection with fresh DHCP on each reconnect
|
|
- Host route to VPN server via existing default gateway (prevents routing loops)
|
|
- Classless static routes (DHCP option 121/249, RFC 3442)
|
|
- DNS configuration from DHCP lease (backup/restore of `/etc/resolv.conf`)
|
|
- Hashed password (SHA-0) and plaintext password (RADIUS/external) authentication
|
|
- Single static binary, Linux only
|
|
