Re: VPN client adds wrong route to local route table



That looks correct to me. The client should have a host route to the VPN
server's "external" IP through the LAN gateway. That is where the encrypted
and encapsulated data has to go for the VPN tunnel to work. You should be
able to ping the server through the tunnel using its "virtual" IP. You can
see what that is from the client. If you click on the connection icon it
will show you both the client and server "virtual" IP addresses.

The routing table you gave was probably made with the "use default
gateway.." box cleared. Exactly what that setting does is explained in
KB254231 .
