Thanks for your answer, but I still don't understand why I need both routes (1st tun0 and 2nd 54.202.18.143). Why can't I use only one?Vova– Vova2018-02-02 14:20:37 +00:00Commented Feb 2, 2018 at 14:20

@Vova as I said in my answer, you need a route to the VPN endpoint so that OpenVPN traffic can get to that endpoint, and you appear to want a route through the VPN tunnel for all your other traffic.Chris Davies– Chris Davies2018-02-02 14:22:36 +00:00Commented Feb 2, 2018 at 14:22

Which application knows to send packets to that specific IP '54.202.18.143'? Through which interface the browser's traffic is going through?Vova– Vova2018-02-02 14:44:03 +00:00Commented Feb 2, 2018 at 14:44

This is a kernel routing table. Applications neither know nor care how their traffic gets to an end-point as long as it gets there. Traffic for 54.202.18.143 goes there outside the VPN. Traffic for anywhere else goes through the VPN and out of the VPN server's end-point to the true destination.Chris Davies– Chris Davies2018-02-02 15:20:39 +00:00Commented Feb 2, 2018 at 15:20

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. shell-script), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
