That'd be best an option like 'route-protect def1' for clients' config that'd mean: add the metric 1 most specific path route to current default gateway through current device of client's network stack to preserve Internet connectivity in case server pushes any route that overlaps current default gateway route (if not present yet)' That could solve an uncommon but unresolvable configuration where: - client's local net IF is 172.16.86.167/22 - client's default route is 172.16.84.1 - server pushes a route '172.16.84.0 255.255.255.0' on successful connect I guess people'd better optionally sacrifice 172.16.84.1 on remote tunneled network than total internet connectivity if random hotel network's administrator made BINGO of one's private address space."
