OpenVPN - VPN Split Tunneling
Raw
gistfile1.txt
Sometimes, it helps to route just some traffic over a VPN.
It doesn’t make sense to add a lot of latency to your vpn if you don’t need it. This only works if you have your own OpenVPN server.
Simply comment out the redirect-gateway def1 statement in your openvpn server.conf file.
and on the client, just put in the following line:
route 12.12.12.0 255.255.255.0 vpn_gateway
Obviously this routes only the 12.12.12.0 subnet out the vpn connection and everything out your non vpn connection.
It’s really quite handy. This is called Split-Tunneling by the way.
