AnyConnect is not promoting wrong password to users

Hi, 

we have VPN deployment where authentication is happening at ISE via windows AD, However users are not prompted with wrong password in Anyconnect once the password is actually wrong. Which cuz them to retry multiple times until password is locked. Is there any way to force Anyconnect to prompt the response that is showing in ISE radius logs

Yes, you can enable the feature "Display Login Failure Dialog" in the AnyConnect profile to show a warning message to the user when the password is incorrect. This will help users understand when their login attempt has failed due to a wrong password. To enable this feature, follow these steps:

1. Open the Cisco AnyConnect Profile Editor. You can access this through the ASDM or via standalone editor.

2. Navigate to the Preferences (Part 2) tab.

3. Check the box next to "Display Login Failure Dialog" and save the changes.

4. Deploy the updated profile to the users.

After following these steps, users should see a prompt when their password is incorrect, which will prevent them from making multiple failed attempts and locking their accounts.

Please note that this feature is supported only on Windows and macOS platforms.
