What are VPN kill switch, split tunneling and multi-hop?

Detailed explanation of the three core functions of VPN

Are you confused after seeing various professional terms in VPN reviews? Today I will explain the three most important VPN functions in plain English.

Kill Switch (disconnection protection)

The moment the VPN is disconnected, your real IP will be exposed. Kill Switch immediately cuts off the network when the VPN is disconnected to prevent IP leakage. The Kill Switch of AoxVPN is enabled by default and will be automatically restored after reconnection.

Split Tunneling

Not all traffic needs to go through VPN. Split Tunneling lets you choose which apps go through VPN and which ones connect directly. Maverick VPN’s intelligent offloading can automatically determine whether domestic traffic is directly connected and overseas traffic goes through the VPN.

Multi-hop (Multi-hop)

The traffic passes through two or more VPN servers and then reaches the target website, greatly enhancing anonymity. Even if the first server is compromised, the attacker cannot see your real IP. AoxVPN provides dual VPN mode.

These three functions are the core of VPN security and practicality, and Aox VPN supports them all. Go to the official website to learn more.
