OpenVPN Support Forum

a server I'm connecting to pushes redirect-gateway to me.

I don't want to route all traffic through it only the remote subnet.

Actually that's just the start. I really want to only route all traffic to and from a certain port through the VPN. I can do that but it's hard if all the traffic is going through the tunnel. Can I disable the redirect-gateway? It's well done, as if they were using "redirect-gateway def1".

I'm running ubuntu lucid and I think I can make a port route table if I can figure out how to stop the redirect-gateway.

hi there,

the most easiest thing to do is to talk with openvpn admin so that
remove the redirect gateway..

alternative you can remove the default gateway route from your routing table
after the connection is established by using a script.

add the statement to your client config to stop ALL routes from being pulled.

if you want to access the remote subnet you still need to pass
routes by hand...

in any case i believe a script is needed.
