Use VPN for specific sites, on Mac
Hello!
I am using Endpoint Security VPN on my Mac to get access to the internal network for my work.
But in the internal network, i can't reach external resources from the internet.
Is it possible to use Endpoint Security VPN only for specific resources and all others without VPN?
Thanks for your support.

Yes it is possible, but you cannot configure it on the client side. Instead, your IT team has to change VPN parameters

Thanks for the answer!
But maybe I can do it by route on my machine command or another way?

So sad =(
It is a special security feature?
Maybe I can use OpenVPN client that can be configured?

Yes, it is a security feature. If your company wants to force employees to go through centra VPN site, users should not be able to override that.
You have to raise this with your IT admins, it is most probably something they can change.
Not sure I understand your question about OpenVPN. If you mean using it for corporate VPN access, once again, refer to your IT guys.

Can I use 3rd party clients like openVpn instead of Endpoint Security VPN?

In general sense, yes, you can use different types of VPN clients on Mac. Once more, it depends on your needs, corporate policy and specific user case, which is still unclear here.
