Hello,

I recently setup a new Cisco AC vpn , whose headend name is abc.company.com , issue is all the time , whenever user need to connect they need to type it , it is not auto saved.

Can you guide what change I need to make at VPN Config of AnyConnect to do this  ?

check the any connect profile XML file, add the domain to it and save it.

C:\ProgramData\Cisco\Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client\Profile  ( check for preferences_global.xml)

Hi , is there a way to do it for all users from any connect config  ?

Most cases the config is pushed from central location in the corporate world (using SCCM) or any packaging system

you want auto-connect ?

@MHM Cisco World Hi I do not want auto-connect at the moment but I do not want users type the vpn name every time they connect

check this video, all work done in XML file. 

Cisco Anyconnect 4.4.X doesn't save VPN URLs. It only keeps the last one which you have used. In this short video, you will learn how to be the boss and command Cisco Anyconnect to remember it! Download preferences.xml here: https://pastebin.com/gysUdS2g Windows 10: %ProgramData%\Cisco\Cisco ...

@MSJ1 you use the AnyConnect VPN Profile Editor to create the XML configuration file, this specifies the connection settings including your FQDN of your VPN. This XML file is uploaded to the ASA, when the user connects for the first time, they will download this configuration file and saved to the local computer. In AnyConnect there will now be the correct settings to connect to for all future connections.

If you want this XML configuration file to already be pre-deployed on your devices, then you will need to create the XML file with all the correct settings and then pre-deploy the XML file using your management tools, such as SCCM.
