Bypass VPN by Hostname

3 minute read Published:

If you run VPN on your router, you may have had cases where you want Internet traffic to bypass the VPN. Most solutions I’ve found use some form of a script originally found on LinksysInfo. However these approaches are IP based, which can be a problem if those IPs change, or if the service you’re accessing uses a CDN. If your router is running firmware that supports ipset, you can use dnsmasq and iptables to solve this problem.
