Cisco – Snow Leopard with Cisco VPN won’t turn off split tunneling

ciscomac-osxosx-snow-leopardvpn

I have noticed when connecting to my office via my MacBook Pro that I'm able to access both the office network and my home network, in other words split-tunneling is turned on. We have explicityly disallowed this on the hardware side.

This occurs using either the Cisco VPN client that is built-in, or one I installed after the fact. Has anyone else experienced this?

I'm wondering if this is a known issue or if there's something I'm not configuring correctly.

Thanks!

There's a separate setting for "Allow local LAN access", which is what you're describing -- this isn't quite the same thing as split tunneling. Split tunneling will use your non-tunneled default gateway to reach things that aren't explicitly in a list of tunneled networks. A better test would be if you go to, say, http://whatismyipaddress.com/ and it shows your home network's IP, then you're really split-tunnel.
