Hi,
I am running Windows 11 ARM on Parallels Desktop (Mac Apple Silicon) and having issues with an Azure Point-to-Site VPN (certificate-based).
Setup:
- Parallels Desktop on macOS
- Windows 11 ARM VM
- Network mode: Shared (NAT)
- VPN installed using VpnClientSetupAmd64.exe
- Certificate (.pfx) installed correctly
Issue:
The VPN appears to connect, but no routes are injected into the routing table.
Running "route print" only shows the Parallels NAT network (10.211.x.x), and no Azure VNet routes are added.
As a result, I cannot access any Azure private resources.
Additional info:
- The same VPN works correctly on a physical Windows machine
- Bridged mode does not work in my network (VM gets 169.254.x.x IP)
- No additional network interface appears after connecting
Question:
Is this a known limitation of Windows 11 ARM networking in Parallels when using VPN clients (IKEv2 / RAS)?
Has anyone found a workaround?
Thanks in advance.
