run a program with anyconnect client

[mialbert]

I am using anyconnect client 2.3.2016.  I am wanting to know if i can run a program(specifically a login script)automatically upon vpn startup.  I am needing to run this client due to application reasons.

hi mialbert,

you will not be able to push the scripts from the router, however the doc that Portu referred to does say this:

Or use an enterprise  software deployment system to deploy scripts manually to the VPN  endpoints on which you want to run the scripts. 


 If you use this method, use the script filename prefixes below: 


 –OnConnect 


 –OnDisconnect 


 Install the scripts in the directory shown in Table 3-8. 



 Table 3-8     Required Script Locations 
 



 OS 
 

 Directory 
 



 Microsoft Windows 7 and Vista 


 %ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Cisco\Cisco AnyConnect VPN Client\Script 




 Microsoft Windows XP 


 %ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Application Data\Cisco\Cisco AnyConnect VPN Client\
Script 




 Linux 

 (On Linux, assign execute permissions to the file for User, Group and Other.) 


 /opt/cisco/vpn/script 




 Mac OS X 


 /opt/cisco/vpn/script 

In other words, rename your script to something like OnConnect_login.bat and put it in the appropriate directory, and it should work.

Note that this applies to Anyconnect 2.4 and later so you would need to upgrade.
