Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/amnezia-vpn/amnezia-client/issues/927

When add new site by domain to split-tunnel sites list, assigned ip is wrong.

Upper: Actual chatgpt.com address
Lower: Address from some Russian provider

There are same behavior if just ping from different locations. Some countries have different address in DNS records, like Chinese google.com

So if you need to add blocked site (or site with substituted IP), AmneziaVPN will add blocked address to sites-list.

I think it's two ways to fix:

Allow user write in input filed only IP-addresses
Get site IP through AmneziaDNS, installed on VPN-server.

AmneziaVPN Windows 11 Client:
4.6.0.3 (Jul 8 2024, 3f90ee91)

Hello,

As you can see the domain name is resolving to different addresses depending on a country (for example China or Russia): https://dnschecker.org/#A/chatgpt.com. So, it's a good question how to do it correctly.

However, you can enable a connection, check the domain name IP addresses and that resource to the list by IP.

I cannot add or modify sites in the split tunneling list while the VPN is active. For example, I need the VPN to be on to ping www.youtube.com and get its IP address through the VPN connection. Then I have to turn off the VPN to manually add the IP to the list.

Would it be possible to make this process smoother? For instance, when adding a new site to the tunnel, it could automatically resolve the IP address using the active VPN connection. Or maybe I’m misunderstanding how DNS works. My wireguard vpn is hosted in linux ubuntu server 22.04

I cannot add or modify sites in the split tunneling list while the VPN is active. For example, I need the VPN to be on to ping [www.youtube.com](https://chatgpt.com/) and get its IP address through the VPN connection.
