Remote Access VPN leakage when connecting

When first establishing the vpn connection, hosts on the network are able to get out directly to the internet without going through the vpn, even though Internet Kill Switch is on. Wireguard was used in this case. Once connected, it seems to work as it should. Is there a way to always enforce internet access through a remote access vpn connection? If not, there should be an option to do so.

  Adding a route to try to force the network to access internet through the vpn didn't fix the issue. I'm still able to access the internet directly while the vpn is establishing the connection.

  There is a configuration option in the vpn client ment for 'internet' with options of 'direct' and 'vpn' along with the 'internet kill switch' that implies enforcing vpn over internet at all times can be done. However, this does not enforce the rule during the initial stage of the vpn connection being made. Seems like a bug
