TL;DR: Is it possible to set up a VPN server for a guest network specifically?
Longer version: I have a desktop machine provided by my employer that I want to isolate from the rest of my home network. It seems the easiest way to do that without having to purchase additional equipment is to create a guest network on the AC86U, specifically for this work machine, and then connect to that guest network via the wireless adaptor on the work machine. This is all fairly straightforward.
However, I also need remote access to that work machine via RDP. The easiest way to do that is to connect via VPN to the local network that the work machine is located on. I can create a VPN server on the AC86U just fine and connect to it, but that is for the LAN. Is there a way to configure the VPN server for access specifically to the guest network, or is this not possible?
I'm assuming VLAN's would be the more appropriate solution to what I am trying to do (can a VPN server be set up for individual VLAN's?), but there seems to be a lot more work involved on that front as, from my understanding, that functionality isn't natively supported by this router. I am willing to dive into that rabbit hole, if necessary, though.
Any insight here would be appreciated.
