I enjoy the new VPN client, it’s small and fast, however I hated that you can’t save profiles in the drop down list like you could in the traditional VPN client.

This has been bothering for a long time and kept finding conflicting information on if this was possible or not. Finally got it to work.

This is for version 3.1x and Windows 7 let me know if this works for your version and OS.

• Create a preferences.xml file in C:\ProgramData\Cisco\Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client\Profile\
• Use this format

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<AnyConnectProfile xmlns="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/encoding/">
<ServerList>
     <HostEntry>
          <User>dclouduser</User>
          <SecondUser></SecondUser>
          <ClientCertificateThumbprint></ClientCertificateThumbprint>
          <ServerCertificateThumbprint></ServerCertificateThumbprint>
          <HostName>dCloud</HostName>
          <HostAddress>dcloud-rtp-anyconnect.cisco.com</HostAddress>
          <Domain></Domain>
          <Group>ssl_url</Group>
          <ProxyHost></ProxyHost>
          <ProxyPort></ProxyPort>
          <SDITokenType>none</SDITokenType>
          <ControllablePreferences>
          <LocalLanAccess>true</LocalLanAccess></ControllablePreferences>
     </HostEntry>

     <HostEntry>
          <User>dmacias</User>
          <SecondUser></SecondUser>
          <ClientCertificateThumbprint></ClientCertificateThumbprint>
          <ServerCertificateThumbprint></ServerCertificateThumbprint>

          <Group>ssl_url</Group>
          <ProxyHost></ProxyHost>
          <ProxyPort></ProxyPort>
          <SDITokenType>none</SDITokenType>
          <ControllablePreferences>
          <LocalLanAccess>true</LocalLanAccess></ControllablePreferences>
     </HostEntry>
</ServerList>

</AnyConnectProfile>

• Save the file.
• Restart the connectivity client.
• Enjoy
