Windows subnets

The PCs that you want to participate need to have a route for the VPN subnet
pointing to their local VPN gateway, which would be the local device with
Tinc installed on it.
Theoretical configuration example.
VPN subnet is 10.10.10.0/24
At a location, one computer 192.168.1.254/24 connects to the VPN and serves
as the VPN gateway. This gateway needs to be configured for TCP/IP
forwarding.

linux
Other computers local to the gateway need a route to the VPN network added
so they know how to get there.
In windows. route -p add 10.10.10.0 mask 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.254
This will add the persistent route that remains after reboot.
Does that answer your question?
