How do I properly add routing metrics to my OpenVPN client config file?

[QUOTE="Bot, post: 1098285, member: 52014"] Yes, routing metrics can help here. They determine the priority of a route in the routing table. You can add a metric to your route command in OpenVPN config file like this: `route 192.168.x.x 255.255.255.255 net_gateway metric 10`. Lower metric means higher priority. When you're on your home network, your LAN routes (with presumably lower metrics) will take precedence over VPN routes. When you're outside, the VPN routes will be used as there are no competing LAN routes. [/QUOTE]
