1. Cisco Anyconnect Vpn Setup

The Remote Access VPN is a virtual private network that creates a safe and encrypted connection over the Internet.

1. Hi Team, We got a requirement is to make the anyconnect to Autoconnect to our network whenever the PC Restarts or the Internet link Disconnects. So is there any way to Remeber the Password in Anyconnect Software and making it to Auto connect whenever there is Distruption in the Network.
2. Feb 05, 2020 If the Connect Failure Policy is set to open or Always-On is not enabled, your users are not restricted from network access and are capable of remediating a captive portal without any specific configuration in the AnyConnect VPN client profile.

You may connect to the VPN to securely access on-campus UGA systems from off-campus. You may also use it to gain access to restricted or sensitive information while on-campus.

To log in to the VPN, you will need to use ArchPass, UGA’s two-step login solution powered by Duo. You can enroll devices in Duo through the Self-Service Portal on the ArchPass website.

To connect to the VPN:

1. Open your VPN client and type remote.uga.edu
2. Choose a VPN Group
3. Enter your MyID and Password
4. In the “Second Password” field, either enter a passcode generated by your Duo Mobile App or type in your authentication method:

• Push – receive push notification
• SMS – receive passcode via text message
• Phone – receive phone call to mobile or landline

You can find screenshots and complete instructions for using ArchPass with the VPN on the EITS Help Desk site.

01 Default is for general VPN use, to gain access to on-campus UGA systems while off-campus. It is available to any UGA student, faculty and staff member. Most users will choose this group.

Each time you log in to the Remote Access VPN you will receive an email notice. This process is intended to help minimize fraudulent logins to the VPN.

The notice will come from soc@uga.edu and have the subject line 'Alert: UGA Remote Access VPN Login...'

If you have not logged in to the Remote Access VPN and receive an email notice, your MyID password may be compromised.

In that case, you should contact UGA's Office of Information Security by emailing abuse@uga.edu. You will be asked to provide information in the email notice.

As always, if you are unsure if an email is legitimate, you may contact the EITS Help Desk at 706-542-3106 or helpdesk@uga.edu

Primer

This guide will assist with the installation of the Cisco AnyConnect VPN client for Windows (Vista, 7, 8.1 and 10).

Installation

You need administrator level account access to install this software. When prompted with Windows UAC (User Access Control) you need to allow to install this software.

1. Download the VPN installer from MIT's download page, Cisco AnyConnect VPN Client for Windows. Note:MIT certificates required.
   
2. Find and double click the downloaded file named 'anyconnect-win-4.5.XXXXXX.exe', where XXXXXX is the sub-version number of the installer.
   
3. On the following screen titled 'Welcome to the Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client Setup Wizard', click Next.
   
4. When presented with the software license agreement, click I accept on the slide-down menu and click Next.
   
5. Click Install when prompted (Note: the user must be an administrator of the machine to install).
   Note: You may be warned the program comes from an unknown publisher and asked to confirm that you want to allow it to make changes to your computer. Click Yes to continue.
   
6. When installer begins installation you will see
   
7. Click Finish when prompted to complete installation.
   

   Connect

8. Launch Cisco AnyConnect.
9. Enter the address of the MIT Cisco VPN:
   • Duo (two-factor authentication) required users must use: vpn.mit.edu/duo.
   • Non-Duo (single-factor authentication): vpn.mit.edu
10. Click Connect.
    
11. When prompted, enter your MIT username and password.
12. For Duo users, in the field labeled 'Second Password' you can enter one of the following options:
    1. push - Duo will send a push notification to your registered cell phone with the Duo Security mobile app installed
    2. push2 - Duo will send a push notification to your _second registered device with the Duo Security mobile app installed_
    3. sms - Duo will send anSMSto your registered cell phone; then enter that as your second password (you will fill out the login info twice with this method, first to get the sms code, then to enter it)
    4. phone - Duo will call your registered cell phone
    5. phone2 - Duo will call your second registered cell phone
    6. The one time code generated by your hardware token or the Duo Security mobile app (the code changes ever 60 seconds)
       In this example, we've entered 'push' in the 'Second Password' field.
       Sometimes methods with lag time, like Call, will time out before allowing you to complete Duo Authentication. SMS and one time codes generated by your hardware token (yubikey) or the Duo Security mobile app are the fastest methods and can help you avoid time-out issues.
       

       'How to call different devices' If you have multiple devices that can use the same method, for instance two mobile phones or two phones that can receive phone calls, you can reference them by different numbers. For instance, to call the top device on your managed devices page (http://duo.mit.edu), you can use 'phone' (for the default) or 'phone1' to call the second phone, you can use 'phone2'.

       
       

13. In this example, you will receive a push notification on your cell phone. Click Approve.
    
14. Cisco AnyConnect should now present you with the MIT VPN banner and the VPN connection will complete.
