Re: [Openvpn-users] Bridging and multicast traffic



James,

regarding your multicast issue. I recently set up a OpenVPN based bridging 
between to sites in a virtual lab. After I read your mail I did some
short tests and yes, it works. 

I used ICMP ping to send multicast packets running from site
to site across the tunnel and two bridge interfaces and yes, I have seen
them on the a host at the other site. Additionall I took mtrace and I
even got its mcast packest on both site. So it seems to work in general.

Compared to your setup I had a little difference: I used OpenVPN with 
mode p2p instead of mode server.

Best regards,

   Klaus
