Apr 26, 2017 I have been using the Cisco AnyConnect as my primary VPN Client for the past few months. The simple view of the client is really impressive and productive. Whenever I want to connect to my VPN host I will type my VPN host address in the text of VPN client and click connect. It’s pretty easy when we are using only one VPN profile.
