NOTE: Before installing the Cisco AnyConnect VPN Client you will need Admin rights to your machine. You may have to arrange this through your relevant local IT support.

Cisco AnyConnect command line interface Resources. Apache-2.0 License Releases 4. V0.4 Latest Jan 28, 2021 + 3 releases Packages 0. Works fine as long as I have one (1) Cisco Anyconnect profile stored. But when you have many profiles at same client (and want to use them via shortcuts using this script) it gets stuck. Then it only work if the FIRST entry in the list is passed as parameters, not for the 2nd or higher entry.

Show Anyconnect Sessions Command Line

In the event that your client is not installed automatically, the screen below will appear. Just click on the link within the window to start the installation process.

Feb 05, 2020 Use Windows installer properties to modify AnyConnect installation behavior. These properties can be used in: Command-Line Parameters—One or more properties are passed as parameters on the command-line installer, msiexec. This method is for predeployment; it is not supported by web deployment. Anyconnect-win-3.1.00495-web-deploy-k9.exe /qn. This tells the program to install quietly without GUI. Combine this with the psexec utility, and you can use this command to install the client on a remote computer. Psexec -c computername anyconnect-win-3.1.00495-web-deploy-k9.exe /qn. It only takes a few seconds to install the client. This is a short guide on how to connect to your VPN Server using Cisco AnyConnect Application from Command Line interface. If you don’t have love for command line interfaces, I recommend you connect from Desktop AnyConnect application as shown in our previous AnyConnect installation guide.

Next, either click save to save the AnyConnect client locally to a temp folder or install immediately by clicking run.

When the AnyConnect client is installed, to connect for the first time enter campusvpn.warwick.ac.uk in the connect to box, followed by your username and password then click Connect.

Using the Manual Install Option on Mac OS if the Java Installer Fails

If you use WebLaunch to start AnyConnect on a Mac and the Java installer fails, a dialog box presents a Manual Install link. Proceed as follows:

1. Click on the circled link within the Manual Installation window below.

(The Mac OS link details may vary depending on your Mac OS)

(A dialog box presents the option to save the vpnsetup.sh file.)

2. Save the vpnsetup.sh file on the Mac.

3. Open a Terminal window and use the CD command to navigate to the directory containing the file saved.

4. Enter the following command: sudo /bin/sh vpnsetup.sh
(The vpnsetup script starts the AnyConnect installation)

5. Following the installation, choose Applications > Cisco > Cisco AnyConnect VPN Client to initiate an AnyConnect session.

Note: You may need to enter campusvpn.warwick.ac.uk in the connect to box, followed by your username and password then click Connect.

Manual Installation for Ubuntu Linux 14.04, 16.04 (LTS) - 64-bit only

Note: Version 17.04 is End Of Life.

Step 1 Enter the following command to install the 64-bit library:

Step 2 Download the 64-bit version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.com and install it on /usr/local/firefox.
The client looks in this directory first for the NSS crypto libraries it needs.

Step 3 Enter the following command to extract the Firefox installation to the directory indicated:

Step 4 Run Firefox at least once as the user who will use AnyConnect.

Doing so creates the .mozilla/firefox profile in the user's home directory, which is required by
AnyConnect for interacting with the Firefox certificate store.

Step 5 Install the AnyConnect client in standalone mode.

Step 6 Launch your web browser and go https://vpn.warwick.ac.uk

• Log in with your IT Services username and password.
• The Java Applet will run and try and install the client automatically, which will fail. However, you will be offered a link to download the client for manual installation.
• Download the file which is called vpnsetup.sh

Step 7 Launch Gnome-Terminal (in the GNOME Menu under Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal) and navigate to where you saved the file and run it. If you don't know where it was saved it's probably in a directory called Downloads.

You can then launch the client using the icon 'Cisco AnyConnect VPN Client' in the GNOME menu under Applications -> Internet.
When you run the client for the first time you may have to enter vpn.warwick.ac.uk in the 'Connect to:' field.

If you want to launch the Cisco VPN client from the command line you can do so with

Using the VPN Client Command-Line Interface

This chapter explains how to use the VPN Client command-line interface (CLI) to connect to a Cisco VPN device, generate statistical reports, and disconnect from the device. You can create your own script files that use the CLI commands to perform routine tasks, such as connect to a corporate server, run reports, and then disconnect from the server.

CLI Commands

This section lists each command, its syntax, and gives an example. It is organized by task.

Displaying a List of VPN Client Commands

Note on Notrayicon Parameter

You must then click OK to continue.

However, if you include the notrayicon argument in your command-line string, no icon appears in the system tray. When you disconnect, the above message does not occur. Also the 'Disconnect VPN connection when logging off' feature is not in effect (see first Note).

Note When you use the notrayicon option either directly on the command line or in a batch file, make sure that you issue a vpnclient disconnect command before logging off or your VPN connection remains active.

Note If you click on the VPN Dialer option in the Cisco System VPN Client list of applications, after you have used the notrayicon on the command line, the lock icon appears on the system tray.
