Network-Manager PPTP add Routes

[lawskynet]

Hi,

I currently managed it to get a pptp-connect to my home network. now I have another little problem. NetworkManager always routes the whole network traffic over my home network if i am connected to the home network.

If i set the "Use this connection only for resources on its network" I have do manually say:

route add -net 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 dev ppp0

After that only the correct traffic runs over the vpn. Now my question is it possible to setup the route via the networkmanager gui?

regards,
patrick

Edit connections -> vpn -> edit -> IPv4 Settings -> Routes...

Thanks now it works, I have to use 192.168.1.0 as Address and 24 as Metric.

There is a utility for calculating the Metric - ipcalc
for instance you can calculate you Metric from your ipaddress and networkmask this way:

$ ipcalc -p 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0

will return

$PREFIX=24
