Force VPN connection to use a network adapter
I have a PC which has 2 network adapters on it. One of them is our main office network and is protected by a Cisco router/firewall that we can't configure (long story). In its current configuration it will not allow the VPN connection. The 2nd network adapter connects to a different network which goes through a SonicWall router/firewall that we CAN configure and it allows the VPN connection just fine. I have created a VPN connection which works fine when I disconnect the Cisco network cable but as soon as I reconnect it the VPN connection fails again. Is there a way to force the VPN connection to use a specific network adapter so the host machine can still be connected to both networks?

What VPN client are you using. Any one I have used will just use the lower Interface Metric in the network adapter setup.
yes, You need to create permament route for vpn server on specific LAN, and you need to add for this network gateway

This is just a Windows VPN. I was hoping to accomplish this without needing to alter the router/firewall config.
This is without any change on the router side. You set that route on your VPN client PC, and that's it.

That worked like a charm. Thank you.
