Hello All,

I just have a query regarding the expected behaviour of a router which is configured as a VPN client in the below scenario:

The router is connected to the public internet but is also configured as a VPN client to a remote VPN server

My laptop is configured in the router to have its traffic directed through the VPN tunnel

One day the VPN tunnel fails, how does the router handle this wrt my laptop?

Does the router automatically try to route the laptop traffic out through the public internet? Or does it leave my laptop with no connectivity until it successfully connects back to the VPN server? Does it depend on settings within the router (VPN protocol used, etc)?

Thank you.
