USC offers Virtual Private Networking (VPN) to provide secure remote access to these services when you are off-campus.

Many people have discussed configuring the OS X built-in VPN client to connect to Cisco VPNs in place of the AnyConnect client. However, all discussion focuses on copying critical config information (shared secret or certificate, in particular) from a PCF or Profile.xml file included in a site-specific AnyConnect installer.

The AnyConnect installer where I am now (version 4.2.01035) seems not to deploy any profile information. /opt/cisco/anyconnect/profile contains only AnyConnectProfile.xsd (a standard schema definition, not anything specific to this configuration). There’s no sign of any profile XML or PCF files that I can find in /opt/cisco, /Library, or $HOME/Library.

This matches the UI experience: there don’t seem to be any preconfigured profiles. Instead, on first launch I just get a blank VPN field in which I simply enter a hostname by hand (in this case, ucbvpn.berkeley.edu) and hit connect. This gives a login prompt including a group selection dropdown, and username and password fields. Simply entering a username and password initiates the connection in the mode specified by the given “group,” and everything works fine.

I cannot, however, figure out how this configuration can be fully transferred to the OS X native VPN client. Transferring a chosen group name from the list seemingly auto-discovered by the AnyConnect client, but the OS X VPN configuration seems to also require explicitly entering either a shared secret or a certificate.

My best guess is that the Cisco client is operating in a perhaps new mode where it can negotiate directly with the server to auto-discover any necessary configuration information, and that it’s not stored on disk anywhere. Does anyone have any experience with a setup like this, or have any suggestions of what else to try?
