Troubleshooting

AnyConnect Client Downloads

Make sure the Local AnyConnect VPN Policy permits downloads of client, otherwise you will receive the following error “Automatic profile updates are disabled and the local VPN profile does not match the secure gateway VPN profile.”

If you receive this error run the AnyConnect Profile Editor – VPN Local Policy application

  • Open the file C:ProgramDataCiscoCisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility ClientAnyConnectLocalPolicy.XML
  • Untick the box Bypass Downloader
  • Alternatively edit the same file in notepad an change to <BypassDownloader>false<BypassDownloader>

ASA Identity Certificate

You must ensure that the Windows client trusts the certificate presented to the client as part of the authentication process. If you receive a certificate error when connecting to the VPN normally, you will be unable to connect using SBL.

If you attempt to connect to the VPN using SBL with an invalid certificate on the ASA or the Windows client does not trust the certificate you will receive the following error:- “AnyConnect cannot confirm it is connected to your secure gateway“. It does NOT present the option to Connect Anyway.

This post describes how to configure a CA Trustpoint on the ASA and install the identity certificate and root certificate.

After installing the certificate on the ASA, connect to the VPN and confirm you do not receive any certificate warnings before attempting to connect using SBL.

Machine Certificate

If the tunnel-group is configured to use certificate or aaa + certificates authentication, ensure the Windows computer has a Machine Certificate. Without a machine certificate you will receive the following error: – “No valid certificates available for authentication”.

Certificate Store

If the tunnel-group is configured to use certificate or aaa + certificates authentication, the AnyConnect Profile must be configured to check All Certificate Store (as mentioned in the previous configuration section) for SBL to work.

If you connect to the SBL and the AnyConnect client does not check the Machine Store, you will receive the error “Certificate Validation Failure“.


Installing the VPN Client

  1. Download the AnyConnect VPN client for Windows. Note: If you're using Microsoft Edge, the program will download as a 'sys_attachment.do' file. You will need to rename the file to 'sys_attachment.msi'
    • If you have the Windows Surface Pro X tablet with an ARM-based processor, you should download the AnyConnect VPN client for ARM64.
  2. Click Run on the Open File – Security Warning dialog box.
  3. Click Next in the Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client Setup dialog box, then follow the steps to complete the installation. NOTE: We recommend you un-check everything (Web Security, Umbrella, etc) except for the VPN and the Diagnostic and Reporting Tool (DART). This will give you a minimal install. The other features are not supported so there's no need to install them.
