Wrapper script for OpenConnect supporting Azure AD (SAMLv2) authentication to Cisco SSL-VPNs

Supported Platforms

• Linux
• macOS
• Windows

Installation

1. Install openconnect on your system

sudo apt install openconnect # Debian
brew install openconnect # macOS
scoop install main/openconnect # Windows
# For other platforms, see https://www.infradead.org/openconnect/download.html

2. Install openconnect-lite

We use uv to install this project. If you don't have uv installed, you can install it by running:

curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh

Then, we can run following command to install openconnect-lite

uv tool install git+https://github.com/kowyo/openconnect-lite

Usage

openconnect-lite --server <vpn_server_addr> --user <your_username>

Configuration

You can customize the behavior of openconnect-lite by creating a configuration file at $HOME/.config/openconnect-lite/config.toml on Unix and %LOCALAPPDATA%\.config\openconnect-lite\config.toml on Windows

on_disconnect = ""

[default_profile]
server = "<VPN_SERVER_ADDRESS>"
user_group = ""
name = ""

[credentials]
username = "<YOUR_USERNAME>"

[auto_fill_rules]
[[auto_fill_rules."https://*"]]
selector = "div[id=passwordError]"
action = "stop"

[[auto_fill_rules."https://*"]]
selector = "input[type=email]"
fill = "username"

[[auto_fill_rules."https://*"]]
selector = "input[name=Password]"
fill = "password"

[[auto_fill_rules."https://*"]]
selector = "input[data-report-event=Signin_Submit]"
action = "click"

[[auto_fill_rules."https://*"]]
selector = "#submitButton"
action = "click"

[[auto_fill_rules."https://*"]]
selector = "div[data-value=PhoneAppOTP]"
action = "click"

[[auto_fill_rules."https://*"]]
selector = "a[id=signInAnotherWay]"
action = "click"

[[auto_fill_rules."https://*"]]
selector = "input[name=otc]"
fill = "totp"

Adding custom openconnect arguments

Sometimes you need to add custom openconnect arguments. One situation can be if you get similar error messages:

Failed to read from SSL socket: The transmitted packet is too large (EMSGSIZE).
Failed to recv DPD request (-5)

or:

Detected MTU of 1370 bytes (was 1406)

Generally, you can add openconnect arguments after the -- separator. This is called "positional arguments". The solution of the previous errors is setting --base-mtu e.g.:

openconnect-lite --server vpn.server.com/group --user [e-mail] -- --base-mtu=1370
