How to use AnyConnect VPN

The AnyConnect VPN Secure Mobility Client* product consists of two
building blocks:
1) Cisco AnyConnect VPN client
2) Certificate-based user authentication with Remote Access password
The AnyConnect VPN client and certificate-based user authentication
will work only from the public Internet (not from inside Intel campus or
from Intel guest Internet access) and only after a valid IP is acquired
by the LAN\WLAN network adapters.

manually connect to a specific location:

Disconnect by clicking the Disconnect button.
Wait a couple of seconds for a proper tunnel closure.
Select the location you want to connect from in the drop-down
box.
Click Connect.

The duration of an AnyConnect session is set to a few days. During

that time your VPN connection will be maintained. When the
session expires, you will need to reconnect and re-authenticate
using your password.

While connecting, AnyConnect* VPN will check for any updates. If

new VPN client software or profiles are released, they will be
installed automatically to keep your PC up to date.

How to disconnect

To disconnect, right-click on the AnyConnect icon on your system

tray and select Disconnect.

AnyConnect switches to auto-reconnect mode when an abrupt

disconnect occurs. For example, the PC enters suspend mode while
the VPN is connected. Auto-reconnect allows you to reconnect
automatically to Intel once a public IP is identified. In this mode
AnyConnect tries to resume a connection indefinitely. Once a public
IP is identified, the VPN connection will be resumed.

AnyConnect Web Security

Background: The AnyConnect Web Security module is a cloud security layer that
enables faster Internet browsing while adding security to your platform.
The platform will automatically identify all Internet intended traffic and route it
directly to the Cisco ScanSafe* cloud for analysis. The cloud will scan the traffic for
various malwares (spyware, adware, etc.) and block any suspicious content. In
addition, destination web sites will be subjected to the standard Intels corporate
guidelines (as enforced while connecting the Internet from the office).
Once clicking the Anyconnect task bar icon
you can see to which cloud entry point you
were automatically connected. The cloud
entry point is also referred to as Proxy.

The proxy selections process is automated.

While you are connected to the Internet, t he
Anyconnect Web Security module will continuously scan the cloud and look for the
closest proxy to your whereabouts.
Override the automated proxy selection and manually choose proxy:

Click Anyconnect task bar icon

Click Web Security
Under the Settings tab, you can find the Automatic Scanning Proxy
Selection checkbox (checked by default)
If you uncheck it, you can manually choose your proxy that will connect you to
the Internet. Just double-click any of the locations in the list
