I need to configure VPN on OSX.
The status of the connection is connected and IP address of this connection is 192.168.112.4.
In Advanced panel I unchecked Send all traffic over VPN connection.
I have IP of the database server that I need to connect to. Let say its IP is just IP but this IP starts with 104.43... and when I try to check if it works I'm doing this:
ping `IP`
But I'm receiving this all the time:
Request timeout for icmp_seq 0
Request timeout for icmp_seq 1
Is there any additional setup that I should do so traffic to IP will be handled by VPN. I think it is handled not by VPN.
I'm totally novice in this area. I don't know how to diagnose such problems so any advice can be helpful for me.
I just want to have all the traffic as always but traffic to this specific IP go through VPN.
I'm working on macOS HighSierra 10.13.6

It's possible to route VPN or direct on a per-app basis, but it may depend on your VPN software. I used ExpessVPN for a time because it could do this. None of the other services I tried seemed capable. Google 'split tunnelling' for methods to do it natively. – Tetsujin – 2019-05-23T08:54:04.960
