@kushal so, I tried recreating my 2-homes-with-VPN-in-between setup, and here are things I found so far:- "home router" is a good representation of an OpenWrt router - it doesn't support VLANs, only has two interfaces (LAN and WAN), cannot have static routes- the proper "router" cannot act as a DHCP or DNS server- a "server" cannot act as a DHCP server- couldn't find a way to show routing table of a router1/

@kushal - if a router receives a packed destined to its own IP, but it's an IP the router has on a different interface than the one the packet arrived to, the router just drops the packet- no easy way to represent an upstream ISP- a router can only have two non-VLAN interfaces, even though it has 4 ports, and it's unclear how the ports map to interfaces

@kushal overall, I like the idea and I think UI-wise it's pretty good, but in terms of simulation, but at this the current stage, I'm afraid kids would be learning limitations of the simulation tool more than limitations of real systems being simulated.Can I help improve it?
