Remarks

Protect a socket from VPN connections. After protecting, data sent through this socket will go directly to the underlying network, so its traffic will not be forwarded through the VPN. This method is useful if some connections need to be kept outside of VPN. For example, a VPN tunnel should protect itself if its destination is covered by VPN routes. Otherwise its outgoing packets will be sent back to the VPN interface and cause an infinite loop. This method will fail if the application is not prepared or is revoked.

<p class="note">The socket is NOT closed by this method.
