Its the split tunnel issue. See this page for some information including
security implications enabling/disabling this...

So it depends on what VPN your using....

With some VPNs, ie. OpenVPN for example, split tunneling can be
enabled/disabled on the server side and the client has no control. I believe
Cisco also is configured server side so the client has no control.

Others, ie. MS PPTP VPN for example, can be configured client side.
