Make tun/tap device available without connecting to vpn

Post by smikesmike » Mon Jan 22, 2024 10:13 pm

Hi,

is it possible to start/load the tun/tap system extension (on OSX Sonoma Arm64) without connecting to a VPN? So that it is available under "/dev/tap*"

I want to use the TAP device extension for a different use case.
