Creating VPN client and server using WCF

Question

I would like to create a VPN client and VPN server using WCF through HTTP.

Can this be accomplished?

Answer 1

To be transparent you will need to write a driver. But if you just want a tunneling proxy it is easy enough to write. If you use a Session Required Contract with a call back event you can build the tunnel.

Sorry I cannot provide a working example at this time. But I will make a note to cleanup project I have and blog about it later.

Edit...

I took down the site with my example a few years back... if I remember I will track down the code and post it to github.

Answer 2

WCF is for creating high-level web service applications, not low-level network system drivers, components, etc.

Of course, you can build web services in WCF that will run over a VPN, but you can't build VPN drivers in WCF.
