I have a windows 10 laptop that has a working VPN connection. I've used Hyper V to install ubuntu 16.04 and have it up and running. I've been trying to get the ubuntu 16.04 VM to use the host's vpn connection? Is it possible? I followed instructions given here which talks about how to get it going for a VM running IE browser. I'm unable to figure out how to set ubuntu 16.04 such that all traffic gets routed through the vpn and not just browser traffic. Any pointers appreciated.

  • Is the Ubuntu machine able to connect to the internet through the host, just not through the VPN? Or does Ubuntu have no successful connection?

  • The ubuntu machine is able to connect to the internet on its own, no issues there.

  • Are you using routing or bridging for your VM? Is your laptop redirecting all traffic through the VPN, or only some network routes?

  • My laptop is routing all traffic through the VPN. I believe its a bridge for the VPN but not sure. I followed exactly the steps given here under create a hyper-v switch section.

  • I meant a bridge for the VM, not VPN.
