I'm not sure I understand what you mean by "private network subnets". You mean it does this automatically, or you configured it that way? > The only > tricky part, which I haven't tried to solve, is that you can't resolve > private DNS entries from the VPN connection.

No, not exactly. That is more an example of the use of multiple routes. Destination-A goes through gateway-A Destination-B goes through gateway-B All-else goes through default-gateway... Either GW-A or GW-B could be VPN. Split-tunneling is more that transmit and receive use different tunnels, Or traffic to SAME destination is load-balanced over multiple, parallel tunnels. "> tricky part, which I haven't tried to solve, is that you can't resolve > private DNS entries from the VPN connection." VPN-server processes can push routing info, and DNS-server addresses. AFAICR systems accept three DNS-resolvers. This can be tricky. If the VPN-process pushes three resolvers, the old ones will be gone (while the tunnel exists), Thus you are unable to resolve NON-vpn-URL's. Situation can get even more complicated, when using split-horizon DNS. Same URL with internally, and externally different IP-addresses. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/message/IWARJZCPHY6Y6USNYS6Z7HJS72Q63LED/ Dit bericht kan informatie bevatten die niet voor u is bestemd.
