I'm able to connect to a SonicWall PPP VPN via their NetExtender client. While connected, I'm not able to access certain private domains that I expect to be able to access. I believe this is because not all of my traffic is routed through the VPN (wrong assumption?). I would like to route all my traffic through the VPN to see if I can access those domains.

I have tried the solution often proposed for this problem:

ip route del default
ip route add default via 10.1.130.104 #IP of my ppp0 route

But this leaves me with no connection.

Here are some useful outputs from my system while connected to the VPN

ifconfig:

ppp0: flags=4305<UP,POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,NOARP,MULTICAST>  mtu 1280
    inet 10.1.130.104  netmask 255.255.255.255  destination 192.0.2.1

    TX packets 55193  bytes 8574058 (8.1 MiB)
    TX errors 0  dropped 0 overruns 0  carrier 0  collisions 0

ip route:

10.1.12.0/22 via 10.1.130.104 dev ppp0 scope link

10.1.100.0/24 via 10.1.130.104 dev ppp0 scope link 
148.76.129.42 via 192.168.1.1 dev wlp0s20f3

192.168.1.1 dev wlp0s20f3 scope link 

How can I route all my traffic through the VPN?

Thanks!

  • Before deleting your default route, you first need to add a new route to the VPN server via your normal default route. – NiKiZe Dec 07 '21 at 06:00
