English Version

The IT service MI recommends setting up via Openconnect under Linux as an alternative to the Cisco Secure Client.

The setup is described in Tip4U#32 from page 5 in German. As this is only available in German, here is a short version of the basics:

• Settings / Network / VPN / press the + icon
• Select Multiprotocoll VPN-Client (openconnect) # dont use Cisco-compatible vpnc !
• Identity Tab:
  • Set Name to FU (or anything you like)
  • Set Gateway to vpn.fu-berlin.de
  • Set User Agent to AnyConnectLinux
• Next Tab IPv4: No Changes
• Next Tab IPv6: Select deactivate
• Click on the top right Button (add)
• Now you can select the VPN (outside FU-Networks, -- You can't test your VPN inside the FU becausee you are already inside)
• On the small window which does start, click the "Login" button (not the connect)
• A new browser window will start with the Default FU-Login Single Sign-On FUB-IT
• Enter your FU credentials and multifactor authentication if asked for.
• You are connected to the VPN now and you can close the browser tab or window.
