Hey, I am trying to connect to a Cisco AnyConnect VPN on Fedora KDE. I entered everything as they should have (I have done this before); however, the connection type is listed as “Cisoc AnyConnect“ which I do not how it was possible. It gives an error about not being able to connect to vpn server; but, I think the error is connected to this. Is this a Fedora, openconnect or KDE thing? Can Fedora fix this?
Where is it listed as “Cisoc”?
You don’t say whether you’re using Workstation or KDE, but if it’s KDE you can likely change the name listed by opening “Networks”, right-clicking the connection and changing the name at the top of the dialogue box.
Gnome - no idea, but it will be something similar, assuming the Gnome Devs don’t think this is something that one needs to install an extension for.
It is not a text box entry, its the “VPN Protocol“ field. The weird thing is I have switched to English lang to take a screenshot for it; but, its listed correctly there, in the Turkish Language, the protocol name is listed wrong; but, it connects now (probably due to the update I installed last night). Is the locale issue about fedora, kde or openconnect?
This is why I was asking if it’s in the application or in the Network connection display. If the former, it’s due to Anyconnect. If the latter, it’s your Desktop environment - KDE or Gnome.
did you install and using the Anyconnect client software also known as cisco secure client?
Also if you are running a firewall on the computer, make sure you have ports UDP 500. UDP 4500, and TCP 8305 outbound enabled.
