Cisco Anyconnect login popup appear on top of all open windows

Does anyone know how to get the Cisco Anyconnect pin prompt to appear on top of all open windows rather than behind all open windows. The problem that we're having is all of a sudden our outlook is offline and after minimizing all windows we notice that the anyconnect prompt is there asking us to login. If this prompt appeared on the top of everything we'd know right away that is what is wrong.

You need to contact the IT system administrator or uninstall and reinstall the anyconnect.  Also, the anyconnect privilege should be with you.

I don't think if we have any , such option ( in Anyconnect client) to order it.

Configuring Auto Reconnect

Unlike the IPsec VPN client, AnyConnect can recover from VPN session disruptions and can reestablish a session, regardless of the media used for the initial connection. For example, it can reestablish a session on wired, wireless, or 3G.

You can configure the Auto Reconnect feature to attempt to reestablish a VPN connection if you lose connectivity (the default behavior). You can also define the reconnect behavior during and after system suspend or system resume . A system suspend is a low-power standby, Windows “hibernation,” or Mac OS or Linux “sleep.” A system resume is a recovery following a system suspend.


Step 1 Launch the Profile Editor from ASDM (see the “Creating and Editing an AnyConnect Profile” section).

 

Step 2 Choose Preferences (Part 1) in the navigation pane.

Step 3 Check Auto Reconnect .


Note If you uncheck Auto Reconnect, the client does not attempt to reconnect, regardless of the cause of the disconnection. Cisco highly recommends using the default setting (enabled) for this feature. Disabling this setting can cause interruptions in VPN connectivity over unstable connections.


 

Step 4 Choose the Auto Reconnect Behavior (not supported for Linux):

  • Disconnect On Suspend— AnyConnect releases the resources assigned to the VPN session upon a system suspend and does not attempt to reconnect after the system resume.
  • Reconnect After Resume—The client retains resources assigned to the VPN session during a system suspend and attempts to reconnect after the system resume.
