Install And Run The Cisco Anyconnect Client For Vpn Connectivity On Mac Sierra

Viewed 473 times

But I'd like to use the Build-in VPN settings provided by Mac OS-X (Sierra) instead. Here I have three options (L2TP, Cisco IPSec or IKEv2). I've tried the Cisco IPSec option and entered the server name and credentials that I have working with Cisco AnyConnect, but this is not working. Cisco AnyConnect should now present you with the MIT VPN banner and the VPN connection will complete. IS&T Contributions Documentation and information provided by IS&T staff members →. 3 This completes the download for the AnyConnect client. Windows installation Client installation steps Step 1: Navigate to the client installation file win-3.1.13015.msi downloaded above (note the filename will change without notification to the latest available client).

Mac

I want to keep my work/personal network separated on my machine.

I want a script that after running that the current terminal session connects to my work network using Cisco AnyConnect (handles username/pass/host/accept certificate). But I want only the session that is running the script to use the VPN after that.

I have seen How to selectively route network traffic through VPN on Mac OS X Leopard? and How to force split tunnel routing on Mac to a Cisco VPN and other links but I really don't know if they are answering my question and a bit too complicated for me.
