Providing a split-configuration virtual private network

1. A method for providing a split-configuration virtual private network (VPN), the method comprising:

receiving, by a VPN server from a device during a VPN connection, a local content request requesting local content that is available in a geographic location of the device;

transmitting, by the VPN server, to a local exchange point that is capable of obtaining the local content, at least a portion of the local content request to enable the local exchange point to provide the local content;

receiving, by the VPN sever from the device during the VPN connection, a remote content request requesting remote content that is unavailable in the geographic location of the device; and

transmitting, by the VPN server, to a remote exchange point that is capable of obtaining the remote content, at least a portion of the remote content request to enable the remote exchange point to provide the remote content.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the local content request and the remote content request are received substantially simultaneously.

3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving, prior to establishment of the VPN connection, remote content information associated with the remote content.

4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

selecting, based at least in part on remote content information received prior to establishment of the VPN connection, a domain name services (DNS) server to provide an access internet protocol (IP) address associated with the remote exchange point.

5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

transmitting, to a remote domain name services (DNS) server, at least a portion of remote content information received prior to establishment of the VPN connection; and

receiving, from the remote DNS server, an access internet protocol (IP) address associated with the remote exchange point, wherein

transmitting at least the portion of the remote content request includes transmitting at least the portion of the remote content request using the IP address associated with the remote exchange point.

6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving, from the remote exchange point, the remote content based at least in part on transmitting at least the portion of the remote content request to the remote exchange point; and

transmitting the remote content to the device.

7. The method of claim 1 , further comprising receiving, from the local exchange point, the local content based at least in part on transmitting at least the portion of the local content request to the local exchange point; and

transmitting the local content to the device.

8. A virtual private network (VPN) server, comprising:

a memory; and

a processor communicatively coupled to the memory, the memory and the processor being configured to:

receive, from a device during a VPN connection, a local content request for requesting local content that is available in a geographic location of the device;

transmit, to a local exchange point that is capable of obtaining the local content, at least a portion of the local content request to enable the local exchange point to provide the local content;

receive, from the device during the VPN connection, a remote content request for requesting remote content that is unavailable in the geographic location of the device; and

transmit, to a remote exchange point that is capable of obtaining the remote content, at least a portion of the remote content request to enable the remote exchange point to provide the remote content.

9. The VPN server of claim 8 , wherein the local content request and the remote content request are received substantially simultaneously.

10. The VPN server of claim 8 , wherein the memory and the processor are configured to receive, prior to establishment of the VPN connection, remote content information associated with the remote content.

11. The VPN server of claim 8 , wherein the memory and the processor are configured to select, based at least in part on remote content information received prior to establishment of the VPN connection, a domain name services (DNS) server to provide an access internet protocol (IP) address associated with the remote exchange point.

12. The VPN server of claim 8 , wherein the memory and the processor are configured to:

transmit, to a remote domain name services (DNS) server, at least a portion of remote content information received prior to establishment of the VPN connection; and

receive, from the remote DNS server, an access internet protocol (IP) address associated with the remote exchange point, wherein

to transmit at least the portion of the remote content request, the memory and the processor are configured to transmit at least the portion of the remote content request using the IP address associated with the remote exchange point.

13. The VPN server of claim 8 , wherein the memory and the processor are configured to:

receive, from the remote exchange point, the remote content based at least in part on transmitting at least the portion of the remote content request to the remote exchange point; and

transmit the remote content to the device.

14. The VPN server of claim 8 , wherein the memory and the processor are configured to:

receive, from the local exchange point, the local content based at least in part on transmitting at least the portion of the local content request to the local exchange point; and

transmit the local content to the device.

15. A non-transitory computer-readable medium configured to store instructions, which when executed by a processor associated with a virtual private network (VPN) server, cause the processor to:

receive, from a device during a VPN connection, a local content request for requesting local content that is available in a geographic location of the device;

transmit, to a local exchange point that is capable of obtaining the local content, at least a portion of the local content request to enable the local exchange point to provide the local content;

receive, from the device during the VPN connection, a remote content request for requesting remote content that is unavailable in the geographic location of the device; and

transmit, to a remote exchange point that is capable of obtaining the remote content, at least a portion of the remote content request to enable the remote exchange point to provide the remote content.

16. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the local content request and the remote content request are received substantially simultaneously.

17. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the processor is configured to receive, prior to establishment of the VPN connection, remote content information associated with the remote content.

18. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the processor is configured to select, based at least in part on remote content information received prior to establishment of the VPN connection, a domain name services (DNS) server to provide an access internet protocol (IP) address associated with the remote exchange point.

19. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the processor is configured to:

transmit, to a remote domain name services (DNS) server, at least a portion of remote content information received prior to establishment of the VPN connection; and

receive, from the remote DNS server, an access internet protocol (IP) address associated with the remote exchange point, wherein

to transmit at least the portion of the remote content request, the processor is configured to transmit at least the portion of the remote content request using the IP address associated with the remote exchange point.

20. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the processor is configured to:

receive, from the remote exchange point, the remote content based at least in part on transmitting at least the portion of the remote content request to the remote exchange point; and

transmit the remote content to the device.
