Unknown “securenat” device showing up inside my network

I’ve been noticing a strange device popping up inside my network from time to time. Its hostname is securenat-xxxxxxxxxxxx, where xx is its MAC address without colons.

I haven’t been able to figure out what it is or what it’s for, only that maybe it is related to something called etherVPN.

Can somebody please enlighten me? Furthermore, could this be a sign that something fishy is going on? This is a simple /24 NAT network.

Solution 1:

If you have VPN enabled — like Softether — it shows up.

The SecureNAT function is a hitherto unknown innovative proprietary technology developed for the SoftEther VPN, the use of which enables the creation of a more secure network.

The SecureNAT function is broadly divided into two parts: the virtual NAT function and the virtual DHCP server function. The Virtual Hub Administrator can enable either or both the virtual NAT and virtual DHCP server when SecureNAT is enabled
