This page contains links to download and installation instructions for VPN software for Linux.
University of Illinois students, faculty, and staff can use these directions to set up some Linux computers or devices to connect to the Virtual Private Network (VPN).
Cisco-supported Versions
Some versions of Red Hat Linux and Ubuntu are compatible with the Cisco AnyConnect VPN client. See the AnyConnect 4.8 Release Notes for a detailed listing of which versions and features are supported.
Downloading the VPN software
From the WebStore, download the VPN software that applies to your system's hardware (only 64 bit is supported in the 4.x software).
If you are using Ubuntu, you may also need to install the OpenConnect Network Manager in order to make the GUI work correctly:
for Ubuntu 16 try:
for older versions of Ubuntu, this command might be needed.
The information below has been modeled on the University of California at Irvine instructions provided at:
Additional troubleshooting tips are available there.
Red Hat Linux
As root, first unzip and untar the file, then run the vpn_install shell script. [Note the file name and directory name will change as the version changes. The example below was from version 4.3.05017.]
The vpn client will be installed on your system and the vpnagentd process will be started. This process will be started each time your system is booted.
Starting the VPN client
To start the VPN client:
Command line:
In a terminal window, type/opt/cisco/anyconnect/bin/vpnui
Gnome user interface:
Look for Cisco AnyConnect in the menu system.- Fedora:
Look in Applications -> Internet
The Connect to: box appears.
- Enter vpn.illinois.edu and press return.
When the connection begins, enter the following:
- Group menu: Select 1_SplitTunnel_Default
(Note: This is the most common choice. See About VPN Profiles for information about the alternatives, such as Tunnel All for access to library resources.) - Username: Your NetID
(or, if you're a guest, your guest ID) - Password: Your Active Directory password
(or, if you're a guest, your guest password)
In the box that appears, click Accept.
You are now ready to use your VPN connection.
Ubuntu
A good source to help with this: http://www.socsci.uci.edu/~jstern/uci_vpn_ubuntu/
First, extract the files and install as root:

To configure the VPN using the Network Manager:

If you get the dreaded “failed to initialize connection subsystem” error when trying to use AnyConnect on the Surface Pro 3, or on Windows 8.1 in general for that matter (though it works fine for me on my ThinkPad T540p), there’s a lot of differing opinions on how to fix it so I thought I’d share the one that worked for me.
Linux Cisco Anyconnect Vpn
- Hit the Windows key and start typing “AnyConnect” to bring up AnyConnect in the search/launcher thingee (as I call it)
- Right-click on AnyConnect and choose “Open file location”
- Right-click on AnyConnect in Windows Explorer and choose “Properties”
- Click on the Compatibility tab
- Check the “Run this program in compatibility mode for” box and select “Windows 7” in the drop-down
- If you have a high-resolution display and AnyConnect looks fuzzy, and you care, you can also check the “Disable display scaling on high DPI settings” box
- Hit OK to save the changes.
- Reboot for good measure.
