VPN Questions Basic

Situation:
Using a vpn client on a pc to access a server via/behind a Z35
All addresses are single static IPs -delineated (no 0.0.0.0)

1. Is *split tunneling decided by the client the router or both?
2. Assuming split tunneling is a selection on the vpn client, how does one choose which traffic goes through the tunnel?

* assuming split tunnelling means one has access to the tunnel and the regular internet from the PC running the vpn client.

Regarding the Z35.
Right now I have connectivity established via firewall rules and port forwarding to the server from my test pc. At some point I will switch to connectivity to the server via VPN.

3. Do I remove the current port forwarding rules and firewall rules (as connectivity will be through the tunnel).

4. Do I need to make Wan to VPN firewall rules instead?

(Very confused on Wan to VPN firewall rules - what are the advantages).

5. Finally once vpn client on PC to server via z35 is established (for others), I will use my USG100 to do so - any gotchas there??

Both

The routing is done according to your local routing table. On Windows see "c:\>route print"

Once you connect to LAN via VPN you don't need any FW or forwarding rules. You don't need to delete them though if you going to utilize them without VPN.

Not sure what you're asking?

Well i discoverd that behind my usg it has ipsec pass thru when testing with a client so dont need nat traversal.
Doing it from usg to zywall should be straightfoward.

If I dont need firewall rules or portforwarding rules if using a vpn tunnel. Then what are the wan to VPN rules for in the z35?? Is it to limit the types of traffic coming thru the tunnel.......... and I suppose users

It's exactly for what it says ...WAN-to-VPN. You can control if WAN traffic can pass to your VPN tunnels.

Well I find that confusing.........
The tunnel is alread made........... how can the router at the outside see whats coming through........... doesnt it have to take the data at the output of the tunnel before it goes to destination to apply firewall rules then..........

The WAN-to-VPN rule is for WAN (non-VPN) ingress traffic.
