[SOLVED] Openconnect VPN via NetworkManager does not change my IP

Hello,
on my machine with a fresh Arch installation I noticed that connecting to the corporate vpn (openconnect F5) my external IP is not being changed.
This unfortunately prevents me from accessing some systems that have a filtering policy on the client address.

Does anyone have any suggestions on what I can check?
Thanks

Although there is the very small possibility that your VPN endpoint (F5) negotiates a "split tunnel" VPN (that doesn't change your default route), please show us the output of those two commands before and after connecting to the VPN:

ip a

ip route

If IPv6 is relevant:

ip -6 route

Hi,
I did some testing from my android phone and window having the same behavior, so I contacted my company's network department who confirmed it was a configuration they wanted.

Thanks anyway
