      Hi,

      I'm new to pfSense and I got most of it configured.
      So I have setup pfSense as a an OpenVPN client and now all my traffic is routing through the VPN.

      The problem is that there are some destination that I don't want to be routed through the VPN (e.g. my work computer, it has a static ip ).
      How can I tell pfSense to bypass the VPN and go straight to WAN when the destination is my work station?

      Thank you,
      TJ

        Policy routing in the firewall rules. Make a rule at the top of the LAN rules to pass to/from that and select the WAN gateway.
