It certainly isn't the easiest (set up VPN once on the router vs.
setting it up N times on N different machines plus PKI infrastructure to handle certificate revokations etc.), and I doubt it's the best either, you'll have a lot of traffic overhead for basically no advantage.

Use a second domain controller. Vpn to first domain controller. (Using an Mikrotik router). And how can you configure windows to use the vpn at startup?
