Name to ip resolution use vpn ip address instead of local ip

Post by maudam » Thu Nov 29, 2018 5:49 pm

Hi all,
i have this scenario:

Location1

Code: Select all

SoftEther Vpn server
Windows server
Local network 10.31.70.x/24
Dhcp Enabled for both local network and Vpn
Location2

Code: Select all

Client1: 192.168.1.79/24
  Hostname test1
  SoftEther Vpn Client (Vpn ip 10.31.70.80)

Code: Select all

Client2: 192.168.1.5/24
  Hostname test2
  SoftEther Vpn Client (Vpn ip 10.31.70.81)

With the two clients connected, when i try to ping (or connect via windows shared folders) the other client in location2,
name resolution returns the Vpn ip address, so the client use the vpn connection instead of the local network.

How can i avoid this ?

Thanks

Hi,

In order to avoid the behavior you're describing, you can adjust the network interface's metric.
