I wish there was an option in OpenVPN to not use connection on SSID/network xyz. I have static IP at home and use dyndns for DNS resolution with service specific subdomains. Then, using forwarder at home I create split DNS to point to local device for public domain. It currently doesn't work as I combined domain for VPN and another service out of laziness after moving VPN to physical box.

All that said, I don't need to VPN while at home to home network and prefer a little more granularity instead wifi or cell only. I believe this could be where battery drain would come from, at least in my case as the client constantly retries at home though it will never resolve the proper host internally cause I am lazy admin.
