GP assigning static IPs to clients

[Akhil_B]

Trying to understand why GP is assigning static IPs to GP clients. We are running GP 5.2.5 and the clients are getting assigned with static IPs, they are able to connect fine without any problem for now but one of the employee when she is working remotely had an issue with GP not having gateway address in there. I was able to get her going by putting GP gateway address in it. But not sure if this is normal or how this works. Any help would be appreciated.

@Akhil_B,

To figure that out you really need to be looking at the users route table and see how it's being set. It's pretty evident that the issue the user is running into is routing related, so you kind of need to go from there as far as troubleshooting goes.

I collected routing table from her machine and it looks weird now. Its got 2 default routes 192.168.... is her local ISP, 10.10.200.... is our GP VPN. I just put in def. G/W to her GP connection to just get her going for now, if I remove it she won't have access to internet if she is connected to GP. route table is as follows:
