Hello,
I am having issues with any connect vpn for Android phones. I have downloaded the any connect vpn mobility client from the Google store. Each time I try to connect, I will get an error 'cannot communicate with the server'.
However the Cisco mobility VPN client for Windows can connect which that installation on the router was done successfully. Do I need to install a different any connect vpn pancake for Android phones

Ok I see your issue (at least one of potential issues).
Could you run the command show ssl and paste the output?
When you're trying to access your https link, we get the message:
ERR_SSL_VERSION_OR_CIPHER_MISMATCH
If you're using IE, you won't see it as IE isn't showing CIPHER Mismatch.
If you don't have in your list the following:
aes128-sha1 aes256-sha1 3des-sha1
Can you add them with command:
ssh encryption aes128-sha1 aes256-sha1 3des-sha1
Thanks

Hi
How the VPN is connected? (User/Password, Certificates,...)
If it's working with Windows, let's assume that everything is fine.
How you're trying to connect? Using DNS or IP?
If you're using DNS, could you try with IP?
Could you share logs of Anyconnect Android client? (here is the link how to export logs: http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/security/vpn_client/anyconnect/anyconnect30/user/xmart/b_Android_User_Guide/b_Android_User_Guide_chapter_0101.html)
Thanks

Hello Support lan,
Thank you for your response. The vpn is connected through username/password using Cisco any connect vpn mobility client. Only the Internet Explorer can display the vpn Web page. Other Web browsers can't due to certificate issue. Am using self signed certificate
Am using ip address to connect. I will check the logs.

Hi,
The error you are getting is due to the fact that your WebVPN IP address isn't reachable from your Andriod device.
How is your Andriod connecting to ASA or IOS AnyConnect Server? Also, since you are using self-signed certificate, did you enable the option to allow users to continue with untrusted certificates. If not then this could be the reason for Andriod phone not connecting.

Hello Mohammed,
Thank you for your response. Am using Cisco ios as the gateway vpn. I disabled the option of blocking untrusted servers in Android phone. Do I need to do the same in the Cisco ios? How do I do that?

Hi
I'm sorry, I don't see any log file.
On IOS config, you don't have any config to allow untrusted servers.
Could you send me the log file please on PM or attached it again on the post?
Thanks

Does it works from Apple IOS devices?
The config seems to be ok but on Android I see a message "unable to find certificate for given ID" that sound strange. to be honest, I'm not very familiar with Android devices.
Could you run a debug webvpn on your router to see what happens when this mobile client is trying to connect.
Thanks

I have tried to run the the debug webvpn but I see nothing. Let's resolve the issue with certificate error. U can open ur browser and type https://165.90.243.10

I'm not able to access your webpage.
Let me know when your link will back up.
Can you create me a account to connect with my mobile and see what happens? If Yes, PM me credentials.
01-25-2017 04:20 PM
OK. It will be up by 8am Nigeria time. Send me your email for the credentials
