LAN bypass on Linux

Hi all,

Is there a conf change I can make to bypass local address filtering with ProtonVPN on Linux? When I attempt to access NFS and SMB shares on LAN they fail to connect with Proton active.

Thanks!

You'll want to create a network route that sends LAN traffic through the unencrypted interface.

sudo ip route add 192.168.1.0/24 dev eth0

Is an example of how to do that, but you need to replace the ip address and eth0 with your actual network address and device name.
- Sweet. Thanks! A quick update and verification on routing and all is working. Appreciate the assistance.
