Hi Glenn,
Yes, you should be able to user route tables to direct your clients from
branch office to your Exchange server over VPN.
Details depend very much on your network setup. One major factor is how many
clients you have in your branch office. If you have small number of clients
you could use local routes on the clients themselves. If you have too much
clients to manage them manually then you will have to setup additional
routes on client's default gateway.
In your main office your will also have to setup your Exchange server to use
different routes to direct any traffic for branch office from the server to
VPN and not frame relay.
It will be helpful to you if your clients in branch office are in different
IP subnet then clients in your main office.
Feel free to post back if you need more information/help.
