          Add the following line at the top of your .ovpnfile to prevent it from routing all network traffic on your Mac through
        

        

          
          the VPN:
        

        

          
          

        

        

          
          route-nopull
        

        

          
          

        

        

          
          Next add the following line to allow the VPN to reroute traffic ONLY for a given IP address / domain (if you need to enable it
        

        

          
          for a domain you can use its IP address):
