A method for intercepting communication of a client to a destination on a virtual private network includes an agent executing on the client that intercepts a network communication of the client. The agent provides a virtual private network connection from a first network to a second network. The decision to intercept is based on a network destination description or an identification of an application authorized to be accessed via the virtual private network. In one case, the agent determines that a destination specified by the intercepted communication corresponds to a network identifier and a port of a network destination description of an application on the second network authorized for access via the virtual private network. In response to this determination, the agent transmits the intercepted communication.
