Using Route command to fix vpn issues

Some networks might not be accessible when connected to vpn, as vpn connection would change
the default routing table to be the first hop in the network route.
You can run tracert command to see the used route

If the route does not lead to destination, route command could be used to fix that.

The "-p" switch would make the selected route persistent.

Run route help to check the available options.

Example: to access vmware machine directly without going through the vpn interface
route add 192.168.226.128 MASK 255.255.255.255 192.168.226.1 IF 2
