Decide what to split
Keep sensitive apps through VPN; allow streaming or local devices outside to reduce latency.
Configure rules
Use client settings for app-based or subnet-based rules; avoid exposing admin tools.

Review risks
Understand split traffic can leak metadata; tighten rules if needs change.
