Feature request for softether protocol

Post by rohitsingh1333 »

Dev, really appreciate your work on porting softether client for Android.
Would love to add more customisations to the softether VPN config just like the official windows softether client.
The primary thing I am looking for is the ability to make multiple simultaneous TCP connections which is limited to only 1 by default.
Please consider.

Thanks for your interest and suggestion.
This protocol implementation was written from scratch and currently only supports basic functionality. Basically the VPN uses only one TCP connection.
Maybe in the future I will also add some advanced options...

Up)

Using 1.01.86. Whenever i connect to SE server, I always see "UDP acceleration is supported: NO" in the session info. Regardless of connection type - DirectIP:443, UDP NAT-T or via AzureVPN

Is UDP acceleration unsupported by design on the client?

Thanks

Hello,

currently it's possible to connect with TCP, UDP over DNS and UDP NAT-T.
The UDP acceleration is currently not implemented.

Is there any sort of roadmap or ETA when UDP accel can be enabled? Will it ever be?)

Unfortunately I can't give you an answer at the moment. The problem is that there is no documentation, so I first have to understand how it works and how complex this part is by analyzing the source code, after which I could start thinking about whether and how to modify my implementation. To answer you I must first find the time to analyze the SoftEther source code...

Acknowledged.

Fingers crossed on seeing UDP acceleration in changelog someday :D
