I’m unsure how a VPN and private relay would be expected to operate concurrently?
What happens if you enable two VPNs concurrently today?
Private relay and VPNs serve significantly different purposes - private relay is very clearly http[s] focused to the extent that I recall it doesn’t cover most traffic?
- ec109685 5y agoPrivate Relay turns itself off when a VPN is enabled.
- tedmiston 5y ago> Private Relay turns itself off when a VPN is enabled. I tested this on iOS and Private Relay does not turn itself off when a VPN is enabled.
- lxgr 5y agoIt does for me as well. Does your VPN possibly not offer a default route?
- olliej 5y agoThanks! If the apple documentation says it does, that would seem like an obvious bug, but I'm curious whether the apple docs do say that, or there's a general assumption of that being the case? Oh, as I think of it, did you test the UI switch position or network traffic? I could believe the following behaviors: * UI switch turns off, private relay continues to carry traffic * UI switch stays on, private relay continues to carry traffic * UI switch stays on, private relay does actually turn off All seem like entirely plausible bug behaviors, and it would be nice to know which it was (UI off + iCPR on would seem to most overtly be a bug)
- tedmiston 5y ago> What happens if you enable two VPNs concurrently today? I don't believe it's possible to have more than one VPN configuration be enabled simultaneously.
- caymanjim 5y agoYou can run as many VPNs as you want. Only one of them can own the default route (and even this isn't true if I'm being pedantic). I regularly run at least two at a time in MacOS, Linux, and Windows.
