I ran into a similar situation re: a Cisco VPN Client clipped me from being able to access the Internet while the VPN client was active. There was a setting I was able to alter that stopped that from happening, but lordy if I can recall what it was after so many years.
One thing you could do if the VPN Gateway does prevent your other apps from hitting the Internet is a problem is use a VPC to run the processes needed, and have the Cisco Client run under said VPC. I have been doing that myself with one commercial client (not because of the Cisco Client causing me a problem, I needed to run multiple VMware Guest machines on a VMware ESXi Server anyway).
