Enabling per-app VPN

You can set up per-app VPN for
iOS
,
iPadOS
,
Samsung Knox
,
and
Windows 10
devices to specify which apps on devices must use a VPN for their data in transit. Per-app VPN helps decrease the load on your organization’s VPN by enabling only certain work traffic to use the VPN (for example, accessing application servers or web pages behind the firewall). In on-premises environments, this feature also supports user privacy and increases connection speed for personal apps by not sending the personal traffic through the VPN.
For
iOS
and
iPadOS
devices, apps are associated with a VPN profile when you assign the app or app group to a user, user group, or device group.
For
Samsung Knox
devices with
Android Enterprise
and
Samsung Knox Workspace
activations, apps are added to the "Apps allowed to use the VPN connection" setting in the VPN profile.
For
Windows 10
devices, apps are added to the "App trigger list" setting in the VPN profile.
