hi all,
Intro:
I am new to the openvpn community, so please be gentle.
Background:
We use a Sophos UTM for our firewall / router at work (which overall we are happy with) and we have a need to setup two new remote branches.
the Sophos uses openvpn as one of the vpn options available, and I think I should be able to work out the details for the connection, so perhaps it better if I just ask this as an openvpn question, and if anyone has specific experience with the Asus RT-N66U router in question used as a client, that would be great.
What I wanted to know was if the openvpn client can be setup to only use the VPN for certain ip traffic, or if it is an "all or nothing" type situation (especially on a router), as ideally each branch office would get some things direct from the net (such as SIP traffic to our hosted service), can I setup bypass rules or such ?
also I presume that if the all-or-nothing situation, that if the VPN goes down, the Asus RT-N66U will route traffic via normal WAN port (I always try to think about failures ahead of time).
my experience with openvpn amounts to a bench test many MANY years ago, so again I ask patience for the noob questions.
TIA
Jim
