I have setup openvpn on Centos and its working like a charm for me ..but my problem is when my client connects to vpn all traffic start going through my VPN tunnel over internet which I dont want, Is there any way I could route my traffic towards 202.125.128.204 only through VPN...rest of the traffic should go through my DSL GATEWAY

push "route 192.168.168.0 255.255.255.0"
push "redirect-gateway def1"

hi,

remove the line push "redirect..
the option resets your default gateway to the vpn.

and restart OpenVPN

Thanks for reply, I have tried your suggested way, by removing "rediredt..." option..in that case im not able to route my traffic for 202.125.128.204 through vpn tunnel over internet...let me tell you that my vpn client get ip from 10.x.x.x subnet....I need a through which I only route traffic comming for 202.125.128.204 through vpn tunnel,,,rest of the internet traffic should not be pass through my vpn server and it should go through by client own dns gateway

hello,

add
push "route 202.125.128.20 255.255.255.0"

or add a static route to your routing table.

okay so you say by just pusing route for 202.125.128.204...vpn server would only route traffic through tunnel for this ip and rest of the traffic would not come through tunnel ..is that correct????

If thats the scene then this is exactly what i want...ill try and will get back to you

okay Karpi it worked like a charm...thank you so very much for you time and help man...I really appreciate it
