How to Separate Internet Traffic from VPN Traffic

Sat Oct 22, 2016 3:30 pm

I am connecting to my Call Center Server remotely using PPTP VPN client on my Windows PC. I am using my internet also while connected through VPN but all of my traffic is going through the VPN and it makes my network very slow. Can someone please tell me how can I separate my internet traffic from the VPN on Mikrotik? I just want my VPN traffic to go to my server not my internet traffic reach the server. My internet should also work but seperately not all the traffic going through VPN.

Hi,

IIRC its not issue with configuration on MT side, but with PPTP client. You can try to stop PPTP client adding default route to system ( PC ). Click properties on your PPTP connection, select Networking tab, double click IPv4 protocol. Select Advanced , untick "use default gateway on remote network".

That should be it.

BTW, term you are looking for is split tunneling.

Regards!
