I'm using a VPN client to connect a development server (on Amazon EC2) to a customer's network, the client I'm using is the linux f5fpc from F5 networks.
Several seconds after authenticating, the client initiates a PPP session using pppd to create the tunnel. The problem is that once this is done, all traffic is routed through this tunnel meaning I lose my SSH connection to the development server.
Is it possible to set up a route which cannot be overridden, that routes back to my IP address via the gateway?
