| vista 32bit ultimate | VPN only. If vpn-off, then block all traffic connecton. hi folks / Hello Forum, can find an answer for my question since weeks. Maybe you ppl can help me out?: I want that my traffic goes over VPN only. I mean, if the VPN is OFF, then internet traffic connections should be blocked. So it does not connect anywhere without the VPN. (I use vista to connect to the VPN (pptp)). (So no client application like cisco-vpn etc.) Any idea how to configure vista for that? I use the "outpost pro 2009" firewall but there seems not to be such a configuration-rule :\ Any idea which Firewall can do or better: how to configure it in vista? Or is there any application for that? Try to help me ppl |

| | Re: VPN only. If vpn-off, then block all traffic connecton. Well, in theory you could block all outbound connections at the firewall in the Public profile, except for the outbound connections you'll need to establish your VPN. Sadly, that's not going to work either, because Windows applies the least-permissive profile to all network connections, including your VPN. Windows 7 allows multiple active profiles on the firewall, so you could wait a while, or look for third-party solutions.
