How to disable routing all network traffic through OpenVPN?
I installed OpenVPN on an Ubuntu machine at home, but when I connect to it, all my network traffic goes through it. I don't want this to happen.
I would like to be able to see only the local LAN network, but not routing all traffic.
How could this be done?
Thanks!

Also remove anyredirect-gatewayline in your client config.

@TomYan The Client config does not have a redirect-gateway line. What should I do with the "--pull-filter ignore redirect-gateway"? Should I put it in the client config?

You can either put it in the config (without the--) or use it when you run openvpn (e.g.openvpn --config path/to/config --pull-filter ignore redirect-gateway)

To condense Tom Yan's comments into an answer:
- make sure there are no
redirect-gatewaylines in your client config - add the following line to filter out any
redirect-gatewaysettings pulled from the VPN server:
pull-filter ignore redirect-gateway
The method is documented in https://community.openvpn.net/openvpn/wiki/IgnoreRedirectGateway, but it only mentions the --pull-filter command-line parameter, not how to add it to a config file.
