I currently have a windows 7 client set up to VPN into a Windows 2012 R2 server but it has it own ip network addresses between the client/server. eg. the Server has internal network ip of 192.168.1.11 that connects to other local computers and the VPN has 10.1.1.1.
Is it possible for my remote Windows 7 client to connect onto the Server's local network so the client has its own local ip (192.168.1.xx) that can access the other network resources?
Is it possible to do this with the standard configurations/settings of Windows Server 2012?
