Cisco Anyconnect Not Installing



Objective

This article shows you how to download and install the Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client on a Windows Computer.

I believe I have my own answer, and that the anyconnect client install failure is urelated to the recent changes on the ASA, but results from cisco revoking the signature on their java applet. Turning the java log/debugger on in the client: control panel java advanced debugging (check 'enable logging').

This article is only applicable to the RV34x series routers, not Enterprise products.

  2. After you've completed installing and configuring the Cisco AnyConnect VPN app, a new AnyConnect icon will be available on your screen (it will be in the first open spot after the home screen). Click the icon to launch it. In the AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client window that appears.

Step 3

A pop-up window may ask for permissions, in this case, select Yes. If your pop-up asks if you are sure you want to run this software, select Run.

Step 4

Check the check boxes for the modules that you need to install.

  • Core & VPN - Includes AnyConnect core client with VPN capability.
  • Start Before Login - User sees the AnyConnect GUI logon dialog before the Windows logon dialog box appears.
  • Network Access Manager - It is a client software that provides a secure Layer 2 network.

  • AMP Enabler - It is used as a medium for deploying Advanced Malware Protection (AMP) for endpoints.
  • Network Visibility Module - Collects rich flow context from an endpoint on or off premise and provides visibility into network connected devices.

All modules will be installed by default unless you manually uncheck the boxes.
