I have my Netgear FVS-318G VPN endpoint router VPN working great with
ShrewSoft VPN client but I notice that it does split-tunneling where

requests to the "internet-at-large" go directly out the client machine's
internet connection.  Aside from secure access to my home network
(typically, I'm accessing the SVN server and file shares on my Qnap NAS),
which is working great, one of my goals was to route all my internet
connections through my home network for added security at public wi-fi spots
to eliminate snooping of email passwords, etc.

Has anyone gotten this to work as I'm looking to do?  Client OS is Win7.


Hi Will,

What is tunnelled or not is dependent on the setting on the Policy tab of the Shrew site configuration and also on the configuration of the VPN gateway.

By default, a new site configuration is set to "Obtain Topology Automatically or Tunnel All." This means that when you connect to the VPN gateway, the Shrew client will accept from the gateway a configuration that specifies what destinations to tunnel. If it fails to receive a list of destinations to tunnel, then Shrew will try to tunnel all traffic.

Assuming you've not modified the default Policy configuration, then I would suggest that your gateway is providing Shrew with only the ip range for your inside network as a tunnel destination. To correct this you'll need to change the configuration of the Netgear.
