The purpose of this short howto is to show you how to:
- use
openconnect[1] to connect to an enterprise cisco anyconnect endpoint - whilst minimizing the amount of traffic that your route through the vpn connection
Usually VPN administrators will puth the default route to the users, so that all user traffic is routed through the vpn connection. This is to address the various security concerns around compromised user computers bridging external internet traffic into the secure VPN network.
While the VPN administrator can push routes to the clients, the client can ignore these default routes and establish client side routing so that only the required A.B.C.D/E network is routed through the VPN. All other traffic will still use the clients default route and default outbound internet connection.
