REQUEST: Multiple VPN Sources Active

GitPuffy opened this issue · 3 comments

I have a feature request, to allow the app to have multiple VPN connections active at one time. My reasoning is the following.

I have two connections on that uses Wireguard and one that uses OpenVPN to two different VPN “servers.”

I would like to have one connection setup as the typical “Exclude” on-demand policy. The other I would like to have set as an “Include” on-demand policy.

I have been in scenarios where some networks use deep packet investigation and block my Wireguard VPN connection. I then manually stop that VPN connection in Passepeartout and manually turn on my OpenVPN connection (which is configured on TCP port 443) and have been able to connect my VPN that way. It would be nice if I could have a configuration of a known network that is configured as an Include policy on my OpenVPN configuration in Passepartout I would then add those networks that block the Wireguard VPN to my OpenVPN include.

I tried to set this up but when I went to enable the “second” connection, the include connection, my Wireguard VPN entry was set to disabled.

I hope I was able to explain my request and scenario in logical way. Thank you for considering this.

If this is a feature request, then why mark it as a bug? :-)

By the way, it's the expected OS behavior and I'm afraid there's no workaround. Also a duplicate of #218. Nevertheless, I'll keep this one open because recently I think I've come up with a potential solution.

Thanks for the reminder, it'd actually be a great feature.

Sorry about marking a feature request as a bug. Opps.

Great to hear that you may have a solution for this request. If you would like a tester for it please reach out.

Thank you

A very interesting change, it would be great if it were possible to implement such a thing.
