I have a remote VPN set up, to which I can only connect to via Linux machines. As of now, I do have access from WSL to this VPN, meaning I can ping and interact with the hardware that is only visible inside the VPN.
Now I need to be able to send and receive data from these devices, or in other words, I need to be able to ping them from Windows. Can I expose this VPN from my WSL-Subsystem to Windows? Or somehow route my traffic through WSL?
I am connected via vpnc on Linux, and wsl hostname -I does show me the IP-Address WSL seems to have on the VPN.
The reason for this is that I have some proprietary software which is capable of communicating with proprietary hardware over TCP/IP. The detailed manner with which this communication is established / what kind of data is exactly sent is largely unknown to me.
As I am not the only person interested in such a connection, WSL is appreciated for ease of use and ease of setup for non-technical folks.
Any help is much appreciated.
