Hi,
I am testing Cisco's Outbound API's through my web application interface on a Linux server(CentOS 6.9) machine.
Followed the below instructions to setup the anyconnect client and connect vpn :
Copy over the installer(anyconnect-linux64-4.6.00362-predeploy-k9.tar.gz) to the user's home directory (/home/<user>)
$ tar zxvf anyconnect-*.tar.gz
$ cd anyconnect-*/vpn
$ sudo ./vpn_install.sh
Accept the terms and let the installation finish.
$ /opt/cisco/anyconnect/bin/vpn -s connect <devnet sandox lab address>
Prompts for username and password, provide the username and password.
Note: I do not have a GUI interface installation, I setup the anyconnect client through terminal. Also, I have the anyconnect tar.gz installer downloaded on my local windows machine downloads directory, I transfer the installer to the linux server machine through a ftp client(filezilla/winscp).
The above instructions I have referred from https://devnetsandbox.cisco.com/Docs/VPN_Access/AnyConnect_Installation_Guide.pdf
The installation guide was not clear very detailed for Linux, and did not include the linux installer link as well.
My question is, have I missed any step above? SInce I get an error when I try to vpn into the PCCE lab, BElow is the complete connection trace -
$ /opt/cisco/anyconnect/bin/vpn -s connect devnetsandboxlabs.cisco.com/rave47
