Re: Routing internet traffic directly instead of through VPN

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry

When you setup the vpn tunnel, you specify a 'local' and 'remote' subnet.
Any traffic from the 'local' subnet that is destined for the 'remote' subnet
is sent across the tunnel. This is commonly referred to as interesting
traffic. Anything that is not interesting is sent out to the internet,
anything that is interesting is sent across the tunnel.

So you're saying I should leave the gateway on each machine as the
internet
router, and that the Outlook will go through the VPN to access exchange?
How
will it know to go across the VPN?

That should not be a problem. A site to site VPN only routes traffic

the other private site through the link. All other traffic goes out to
the
Internet through the gateway router.
