Using a VPN

Engines and Clients can run behind a VPN, provided that the Engine Daemon or Driver can determine the correct IP address to use. If VPN client software on the Engine/Client machine handles the VPN, you can possibly specify which IP address to use. For Engines, in the Engine Configuration, use the Net Mask setting to force the engine to pick the VPN interface. For Clients, you can set the DSLocalIPAddress property to the IP number of the correct interface.

If an external device like a router handles the Engine/Client-side VPN, it is unlikely that the Engine Daemon or Driver can determine the VPN address. Running Engines or Clients in this configuration is not possible.
