Hi
I know Android has its own built-in VPN client but I would like to create my own VPN client to connect to our VPN server as I would like to add an extra layer of security on it. Can anyone help me out please?
Maybe just some guide on how to create a VPN profile using the built-in Android client programmatically (of course without accessing the hidden API) or something equivalent? Specifically I want to create a VPN profile with IPSec Xauth RSA Authentication.

Does anyone know:
Is it possible to do Group Authentication with the built-in VPN client? My work network uses a Cisco VPN and I've managed to extract out of our IT department the Group name and Password but I can't figure out how to enter this onto the Exec - it offers me "A certificate on this device" or "A pre-shared key" and entering the password into the pre-shared key doesn't seem to work. Our IT department tells me that the Exec is unsupported and won't give me any help so anyone out there know how to do this?
If it's not possible, anyone recommend a good VPN client for connecting to a Cisco VPN?
Thanks

Anybody?
My work uses group authentication also. Does anyone know a good vpn client that will work with group authentication?
There is a Cisco ICA/Xen/client for ARM PDA here: http://www.citrix.com/English/ss/downloads/details.asp?downloadId=3607&productId=186#top
Is this what you are looking for?
interesting..
I didn't know there was a citrix client for WM. My work also uses citrix. The only problem is in order to connect with the citrix client I must have a VPN tunnel first . My work uses Cisco VPN Group Authentication. I have not yet found a VPN client for WM that will allow Cisco group authentication. If anyone knows of one, PLEASE let me know.
Thanks wovens for the citrix client. That will be neat to try if I can ever get a VPN tunnel setup.
FOUND IT!
I finally found a VPN client that will work with Cisco group authentication. It is Bluefire Mobile Security VPN. One thing I found is that after you connect you must press the END key to get out of the client because pressing the x will kill the client. Works Great!
The only problem is the company went out of business (http://www.bluefiresecurity.com). I was able to find the .cab, but not sure if it is against forum rules to post it... Can a mod please inform me, thx.
Does your company use Cisco SSL Vpn by chance? It's the way Cisco is leaning as is with less support for the ipsec since they can make more money off of licensing.
Anyhow if your company does use SSL VPN, Cisco's anyconnect client supports Windows mobile. I have been using it and it works good for what I use it for (primarily SSH, but for kicks I tried remote desktop and it worked good too).

Hi,
I try to establish a vpn connection to our company-VPN.
VPN Gateway is a cisco device. "Normal" connection via notebook with cisco vpn client works.
On my TyTN i installed ncp client. But i dont know how to configure the cisco settings.
On Cisco VPN Client:
- IP Adress of Gateway
- Group Authentication
- Transport IPSec over UDP
On ncp VPN Client:
- IP Adress of Gateway is easy to find
But i cannot assign the other settings. NCP Client has a lot of settings.
Has anybody success to establish vpn connection via windows Mobile to a cisco Gateway ?
Got it. Not the vpn Client was the problem.
The Blackberry connect SW (disabled!) prevented connection via vpn.
Deinstallation of BB Connect und vpn Client from Bluefire works fine.
What did you use as the VPN client to connect into the cisco gateway?
Do you use a RSA secureID token?
I am tring to get a VPN connection running from my HTC p3600i, WM6.
New VPN Client
Since a few days i use another VPN Client: www.ncp.de
Works fine. We do not user RSA Token. Only Group Authentication (free string to identify groups) and XAUTH - user/password.

Can you write your settings? I can't configre this
Any ideas on a MPPE PPTP VPN via WM6? I have been trying to get this to work for months and can't. I am operating under the presumption that the VPN client in WM5/6/6.1 doesn't support MPPE and I am therefor up S#!T creek without a 3rd party dialer...
(It is a VPN connection to my work and yes as sorry as this is they still use an encrypted PPTP connection for all of their VPN connections. If they would just move on to something a LITTLE more current L2TP/IPsec I wouldn't be having any of these problems...)
But is there such a thing as a 3rd party PPTP VPN client for WM5/6/6.1 I haven't been able to find one...
TIA~

New(ish) Cisco AnyConnect VPN Client
Cisco have released an AnyConnect VPN client for Windows Mobile 5/6 (version 2.3.185). This is specifically targetted towards the ASA 5500 platform as the VPN server, however it should also work with IOS VPN devices (I am told?).
I haven't tried it, however I have seen it demonstrated and it all seemed to work.
Personally I prefer the integrated L2TP/IPSec VPN client and have posted previously on how to get this working with Cisco PIX 6.3, ASA/PIX 7.x and IOS devices.

AnyConnect VPN client will support only SSL VPN, that avaiable on Cisco ASA and IOS from 12.4(20)T or later.
Can I have two VPN connections to two different places on the same computer?
I work at two different medical facilities. I have a VPN connection to one and I'm trying to set up one for the other. When I'm in the New Connection Wizard and I pick "automatically dial connection", it makes me pick the medical facility that I already had on the computer to "automatically dial" when trying to create this new one.
cool vpn has given the users privilege to surf internet with freedom and security Thanks to VPN
...is it even possible? I'm running the latest NRG ROM on my Touch Pro 2, but I can still only find the "connections" applet to setup a VPN connection. The only choices are PPTP and IPSEC/L2TP.
Is there any way to establish an SSL VPN (SSTP) connection with WM6.5?
Thanks in advance.
You need your VPN gateway's vendor SSL client, such as Cisco AnyConnect Mobile. There's no native support for SSL VPN in Wm6.5.

This is just something I'm running on my own domain. I have no Cisco equipment.
I'm thinking it'll just be easier to set up IPSEC/L2TP in addition to my SSL VPN. I was hoping not to, though....
Hi all,
I have been tinkering with connectivity into my corporate network and so far been able to get a connection to our Office Communicator server via ASProxy and a secure wireless connection. However I am looking for a solution that works across my 3G connection via a VPN.
I have looked at the market place versions of OpenVpn and I cannot get it to work with our Cisco Gateway. I got stuck at the tun and adb part, so not sure what I need to do at this point so though I would ask the experts on here ;-) There has been much work on a very important missing part which was a user authentication proxy, so the next bit for me would be a means of connecting to an IPSec/UDP Cisco VPN Gateway that works with my Domain username and then a fob generated password.
Any help from you guys would be most appreciated and perhaps I can share my ASProxy configuration for anyone wishing to get their's working....
Thanks

Hi,
you can't use an OpenVPN client to connect to a Cisco (IPsec) VPN server.
If you want to connect to an OpenVPN server then you can use OpenVPN Installer and OpenVPN Settings from the market.
If you want to connect to an IPsec server then use the built-in android VPN client or even some proprietary Cisco client from the market... (don't know about these as I only use OpenVPN)
Hi, thanks for the reply, however the built in VPN client will not work with our server. There is a Cisco anyconnect client that does connect, but we need a license for it which we dont currently have.
I will keep trying....
I have a vpn account from a L2TP/IPSEC VPN Server and use four attributes to connect it from Android or Windows devices: IP Adress, User Name, User Password and PreShared Key. I can connect with these details successfully manually. I also want to connect it programmatically in Android 4.x.
I looked into OrbotVPN and ToyVPN projects but couldn't see any details about connecting to existing VPN server. And I think there must be some configuration(server side code) at the remote point (VPN server) to response requests from clients in these projects. But in default; a L2TP/IPSEC VPN server configured already and ready for connections.
Also googled it, all of them says "VpnService is designed for creating custom-protocol VPN applications" but there is no an example of IPSEC implementation.
Is there any example of IPSEC implementation?
