OpenVPN exclude IP or port

I brought a VPN service that I want to use on VPS for web bots.

I've installed OpenVPN and config from the VPN Service, but openVPN is tunneling with the VPN service for all services even for remote desktop connection, so now it is hard to manage Windows VPS from my local because of a 500+ ms latency.

So is there any way to exclude the remote desktop service or my IP, so I can manage VPS in normal way, but in VPS other things could be with the VPN?


You can exclude single IP addresses or address ranges by adding a new entry to the routing table.

  1. Find out your usual "default gateway" (usually your router's IP address) from ipconfig.

  2. Connect to VPN.

  3. Run route add <vps-address> mask 255.255.255.255 <gateway> in Command Prompt.

    If you want to add an entire subnet, adjust the netmask accordingly. (For example, add 198.51.100.0 mask 255.255.255.0)

  4. If it works, add it again with route add -p so that Windows will remember it for the future.
