Enabling Automatic Termination of the VPN Client Application

By default, VPN Client is configured to run in the background and the application icon appears in the system tray. In this case, the Cisco VPN client application icon does not appear in the system tray. To change this behavior, you need to make the following changes in the arcotvpnclient.properties file:

  1. Set the value of systray.display parameter to False.
  2. Set the value of vpnclient.connect.command parameter, as shown below:
    {base.vpn.client.directory}\\vpngui.exe -c -user "#username#" -pwd "#password#" "#profile#".
    

Making these changes in the arcotvpnclient.properties file configures the VPN Client application to automatically terminate once the user is successfully authenticated by AFM, and the control passes to the Cisco VPN Client application. In addition, the Cisco VPN Client application icon appears in the system tray.
