I work from home and need to connect to an ftp server. The ftp server has my work IP whitelisted and cannot connect from home. I set up a VPN, with Smart VPN (OSx) and made the connection to the office. Now I would like to connect to the ftp server, using my office IP address and I am not sure how to achieve that. I use Cyberduck or alternatively Filezilla as an ftp client.
Any ideas are welcome!
This answer from StackOverflow seems to be what you are looking for:
Open a CMD/Terminal and type "route print" or "netstat -r" take note of where example.com is pointing to. Most likely the default route will catch it. In that case you want to add a route to have it go via the VPN interface for any traffic that goes to example.com (After doing this, once you disconnect from the VPN you will not be able to connect to example.com any more unless you connect to the VPN.)
The other way is to connect to the FTP using the local IP of the FTP once connected to the VPN.
