MicroNugget: What is Split Tunneling with Virtual Private Networks?

Start learning cybersecurity with CBT Nuggets. https://courses.cbt.gg/security In this video, Keith Barker covers split-tunneling with VPNs. Keith explains what split tunneling is, when and why you'd want to use it, how to set it up on an ASA, and how to verify that it's working properly — all in service to keeping a VPN running fast. VPN tunnels are great tools that are enjoying increasing popularity in many businesses and organizations that have users working remotely. That popularity stems from their many strengths: authentication is ensured because we only set up tunnels for trusted users, data integrity is maintained by the very nature of how traffic moves through a VPN tunnel, and confidentiality is a given as well because encryption is used at every step. But VPNs come at a cost of overhead — if an external user wants to access the internet on a VPN, gateways can quickly become bloated and slow. It's quick work to manually configure an ASA to set a split tunneling policy and then head to the command line to verify the VPN settings. Speed up your VPN tunnels with VPN split tunneling and smart routing. 🌐 Download the Free Ultimate Networking Cert Guide: https://blog.cbt.gg/02zu ⬇️ 13-Week Study Plan: CCNA (200-301): https://blog.cbt.gg/39fo Start learning with CBT Nuggets: • Cisco CCNP Security | https://courses.cbt.gg/6t4 • Intro to Networking | https://courses.cbt.gg/tuv
