Can... anyone recommend the cheapest setup possible that would allow me to select devices on a local network that would then route all traffic from that device over a VPN tunnel to another network (bi-directional too)?

I... could probably get there with some trial and error (have a bit of networking background and get the basics + a bit more) but some suggested kit and approaches would likely make this rather easier. I'm guessing pfsense can likely do exactly this so... that's my fallback.

Essentially after routing traffic for a certain machine on a friends network so it comes over to mine and leaves my network as general internet traffic for.... reasons.

So... friends device, traffic from that specific machine hits his router, comes over the VPN to mine, leaves my network back to general internet/ISP traffic as being from my network, replies get correctly routed back bouncing through my networks router.

Both routers would be using NAT too so there's a little complication with port mapings/etc.

I'd need the router to catch it, no software on the machine going over the vpn.
Cheers for some useful bits there Janesy B :)

Is there anyone needed from the client machine? I literally want to be able to filter by... whatever IP/mac and everything from that machine, when it hits the router goes over to my network.
