What is the difference between Global mode and Partial mode?

In 5UF VPN, Global mode and Partial mode describe how much of your traffic goes through the VPN.

Global mode:

• Most system traffic goes through the VPN.
• Good for users who want a more consistent VPN route.
• Also more suitable for apps that do not support proxy mode well.

Partial mode:

• Only selected websites, apps, or rule-based traffic goes through the VPN.
• Other traffic continues to use the local network directly.
• Useful when you only want specific traffic to use the VPN.

How should you choose?

• If you are not sure, Global mode is usually the simpler starting point.
• If you only want a small part of traffic to use the VPN, choose Partial mode.

The naming may vary slightly on different platforms, but the core idea is the same.
