<![CDATA[VPN Split-tunneling]]>Hi Guys,

Has anyone set up effective split tunneling for their users for specific apps they use?

I am having trouble finding a VPN client that makes that easy on a per desktop app basis.

For example, A user using our VPN App, wanting to split tunnel only traffic for the Telegram desktop app.

Thanks

I am not a customer of any of the named companies, but a way to achieve this on a linux system is with "network namespaces" (or plain routing if you know which servers the app in question is talking to). On the wireguard blog the following article explains the setup for this: https://www.wireguard.com/netns/

Mullvad seems to do just this!

Their Github has all of the clients, desktop and mobile:
