Greetings,

I'm not certain how to do it programmatically with Cisco. But you may check this solution how to handle the disconnect, where a user wrote an expect script around the client: euer.krebsco.de

Pretty much if you are working on building an Android VPN app, OpenVPN comes out as an option. Since OpenVPN has a lot of community support, you can easily build a VPN client for any platform. So I have created to an app in Java, using Android Studio.

If you want to connect to a server behind a private VPN, from the outside, nothing you can do on you app can/will allow you to do connect. Unless you launch a VPN client and programmatically connect your network, to that VPN server, your java app will just sit there waiting for a socket on http connect.

A VPN client can be built using OpenVPN on any platform, since it is very community-based. Therefore, I have applied Android Studio to the Java app.
