I have put the following values: Address = 172.17.0.0 Prefix = 16 Gateway = 0.0.0.0 and now it works exactly as it should :) Thanks again Piotr -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/VPN-%22Only-for-this-address-range%22-equivalent-tp20236932p20343837.html Sent from the Gnome - NetworkManager mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ NetworkManager-list mailing list NetworkManager-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list

I just need to set up my network so that most of the traffic will go through a direct Internet connection while all the traffic for a small number of IP addresses (starting with 172.17.x.x in my case) will go through VPN. Only for this address range worked like a charm in the previous version of NM and now I am stuck trying to achieve the same thing with NM0.7. The UI of the Routes page is really confusing - what am I supposed to put as Prefix and Metric? So far, no matter what I enter all the traffic goes to VPN. I would be grateful for any help.

VPN Only for this address range equivalent
In the old NetworkManager I could set a range of addresses to use the VPN connection for and have the rest not use it. I don't see this equivalent in the 0.7.0. Is there somewhere I can configure this? I basically only want it to use the VPN for all addresses on a certain domain.
