You can configure enabling a VPN connection for selected applications only (split tunneling).
How to configure enabling a VPN connection for selected applications
The split tunneling functionality has the following limitations:
- Split tunneling works only on Microsoft Windows 10 or later. If you upgrade an older operating system to these versions, you must reinstall Kaspersky VPN Secure Connection for the functionality to become available.
- Split tunneling with antivirus applications. In this case, Kaspersky VPN Secure Connection will show an error message.
- Split tunneling may affect TeamViewer operation. To work with TeamViewer, simply enable VPN without this function.
- If a VPN connection is enabled, all applications, including those added to exclusions, will use the DNS of the VPN tunnel instead of the user's DNS.
- DNS requests from applications in the list that are set to operate over VPN do not always pass through the DNS server the VPN tunnel. In certain cases DNS requests from an application may be sent outside the VPN tunnel.
- VPN settings for selected applications are applied to the specified paths to the applications only. If a path is changed, for example if an application from the list is updated, the settings for selected applications will not be automatically applied to it.
