My issue is that many of my remote desktop apps require knowing the IP adress of the other PC. I’m looking for a VPN that auto-discovers other devices on the same network. That way I could just “ssh” into the same IP every time, because it would be IP inside of a virtual network. Ideally I am looking a solution that does not require internet connection.
Thanks.
I don’t think you need a VPN here since you’re using an already secure protocol. Sounds like you’re mostly wanting a static IP address. You can configure the local router to hand out static IPs. Local DNS works too.
Static IPs are not a thing in most countries. You need an overlay network or dynamic DNS like NoIP.
Static IPs handed out by your local router are not dependent on having a static IP from your ISP. You do not need one to have the other. You can always have static IPs on your local network.
Ah okay but is that useful in many cases? Only when you are home.
