[Q] How to connect to Cisco VPN with Group Authentication - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone,
Has anyone successfully connected to Cisco VPN using Group Authentication? I've tried to use IPSec Xauth PSk in both basic and advanced VPN settings but no luck.
At the very least, I'd like to be able to view the log to identify the issue. How can I access this log? Thanks!

Why you just dont try with NCP VPn Client, it allows you to import the pcf file or insert your own values there, works very well.

I realize 3rd party apps may work, (VPNCilla confirmed) but I am trying to utilize the native (and free) option.

VPN sets default gateway to VPN server, any way to prevent this?

//edit: DNS issue fixed, reusing this thread for another issue.
On Windows PPTP VPN connections, you can select whether or not the default gateway gets set to that of the VPN server. In the Android VPN client, it automatically sets the default gw to the VPN server.

How did you resolve this issue?!

DNS issue was something weird, it had to do with my ROM.
I still haven't resolved the ability to keep your default gateway instead of changing to the one of the VPN. So I only connect when I need to, but it would be great to be always connected so I can have access to my NAS.

VPN problem

Exclamation VPN problem
hi all. I'm living in a country where nearly all sites (even facebook, youtube, twitter, friendfeed ...) have been filtered and we can not access them without vpn.
I use vpn on my pc and there is no problem using it but I can't have it on my ppc.
I setup everything in detail but when I try to connect I get the username/pass error which says:
VPN server problem. Verify your username and password, and try again. If the problem continues, turn the device off and try again
I've asked my vpn provider for mobile compatible IP and he has given me so, which he says works fine for iphone users. but I still have problem connecting to.

can anybody help please?
The name pings as 173.236.83.117, have you tried putting this in instead of the full name? also have you put the name/ip adress in your exceptions list? I believe you will need to!

[Q]VPN to Cisco network

Hey everyone. Was curious if anyone has tried a VPN application on the Nexus. Not sure if stock kernel would even support it. I currently use VPN Connections on my Droid Incredible CM7, as it was only easy vpn app I found to connect to my cisco vpn network at work.
Yeah you need custom kernel and root.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA App
No root or custom kernel with Columbitech! All stock client with Android 4.0! Two factor authentication, 256 bit AES encryption, FIPS 140-2 certification and session persistence!
https://market.android.com/details?...51bGwsMSwyLDEsImNvbS5jb2x1bWJpdGVjaC5tVlBOIl0.
Wait, I thought ICS added Cisco VPN support. Why bother with rooting or Columbitech?

Cisco VPN now works, at least against the ASA5505 I'm testing against. It accepts Group Names under IPSec/L2TP/PSK. Key in your group name and password, and it should work. Have not messed with certificates yet.
Works for me too (don't know the model).
This release is all kinds of awesome

What about SSL VPN (i.e. Cisco AnyConnect)?

Cisco has Anyconnect apps in the market for SSL VPN. You have to have the corresponding mobile licenses installed in the ASA first.

Hmm...looks like it either requires root or a specific hardware vendor's ROM to work. Guess they haven't updated it to use the ICS VPN API yet.
Hmmmm today Im try connect to Cisco VPN which use Group Authentication but failed. On PC I use Cisco VPN Client version 5.0.07.0290 and can normaly connect.
I don't use certificates.
I have selected IPSec over UDP (NAT / PAT).
I have Host, Group Name, Group Password, User Name, User Password which I must write in which edit box on android?
Few of you mention to use it already supports it. I tried to setup one with L2TP/IPSec PSK. Entered the server name. Which fields do you put the group username and password in?
Thanks in advance!
I'm using the IPSec XAuth PSK setup filling the IPSec identifier with group and IPSec pre shared key with the shared password. I didn't need to use the advanced section.
I just basically went through each setup option until I hit the right combination.
That worked! Thanks. Now is there a way to get around requiring a passcode to unlock the phone?
good god that was so much easier than setting up my transformer for this. thanks everyone for the guidance. Any idea if there's a widget that will just turn a specific vpn on/off?
I'm using a Cisco IPSEC VPN concentrator. with PSK auth.
I'm able to connect but i can't route any traffic.
When i connect from my desktop i use to get a /24 IP with a default gw, when connecting from my phone all i get is a /32 ip and no default gw

Hy, I think the ip which is shown there is providet via DHCP from the DHCP-Server of your carrier. Your Laptop is in the same IP-Area because you use your phone a modem.

hy, i think changing the app doest solve your problem.
You need to be in the same network with your Laptop.
Is there an Error Page in your browser?
You need to Install a Port-Forwarding, or else you cant acess it from the internet, furthermore you need to know the external ip of your college's
network. For further help pm me or write down the ip's an the used networkmask here.

Anyone use wifi tethering with android anyconnect?

I setup the anyconnect client on my phone which works great. I can access internal web pages, ssh to internal devices. Problem is that if I launch the anyconnect client on the phone, and then wifi tether my laptop to the phone, the phone will not forward the traffic from the tethered device to the Anyconnect VPN.
FWIW, Wifi Tethering works fine without the Anyconnect.
Running Task650's 4.2.2 rom and the Anyconnect for root users on the phone.
-J
Same problem here. Any help would be appreciated!
it's probably a routing issue on the phone, but I haven't had a chance to look into it yet.

bump.
bump. I will look into this. But can't post my help until I make 10 posts and get the ability to post links
Its a setting set by your administrator
The issue:
You might already know this but your network admin configured the app to prevent sharing of the connection. This is a common measure to prevent breaches in security. Looking at the Cisco AnyConnect release notes:
Cisco has qualified the AnyConnect VPN client over a bluetooth or USB tethered Apple iPhone only. Network connectivity provided by other tethered devices should be verified with the AnyConnect VPN client before deployment.

The WorkAround
How AnyConnect works on the android is the same as on a computer, which is documented on SuperUser.
So what we have to do is either, export the VPN profile to another VPN app, or change the variable in memory that prevents tethering of the AnyConnect VPN session.
This can be done using (while it wasn't created for this purpose) Game Gardian
