How to create a split tunnel VPN on OSX for Cisco VPN client?

How can I configure my VPN client on OSX as a split tunnel? I don't want all my traffic to travel over the (slow) VPN. Surely there must be a way to add a default route that bypasses the VPN.

I am using the Cisco VPN Client version 4.9.0.1.0180 on OSX Snow Leopard.

Solution 1:

This is configured on the server side by your administrators.

I'm connected via a Cisco VPN client and only traffic destined for our servers goes through the VPN interface. All other traffic goes straight out my internet connection without passing through the VPN.

The easiest solution (from a technical point of view) is to ask your administrators to configure the connection for split tunneling. That solution might not be easy (or even possible) from a political point of view.
