VPN connections while on the corporate network

[lhoyle]

I am pretty sure this is a 99% education issue, but I wanted to ask if anyone has ever blocked access to the company VPN when people are IN the office? Coming out of the pandemic, most of the users are so used to signing in to the VPN, they still do it when they are in the office. Does anyone know of a way to keep the client from even firing up if they are on the corporate network?

Hi @lhoyle 

You can configure Trusted Network Detection within AnyConnect, which will detect when the computer is connected to the corporate network and disconnect the VPN accordingly.
