Cisco Anywhere Connect
Depending on how your company configured Duo authentication, you may or may not see a “Passcode” field when using the Cisco AnyConnect client.
The Cisco AnyConnect VPN allows you to connect to Mason networks allowing access to restricted services as if you were on campus. To connect to the VPN from your Mac computer, you need to install the Cisco AnyConnect VPN client. The following instructions are for computers NOT on Jamf Pro (Mason Self Service). If your computer is on Mason Self. If you update your Cisco.com account with your WebEx/Spark email address, you can link your accounts in the future (which enables you to access secure Cisco, WebEx, and Spark resources using your WebEx/Spark login).
Single Password with Automatic Push
If AnyConnect only prompts for a password, like so:
After you submit your login information, an authentication request is automatically sent to you via push to the Duo Mobile app or as a phone call.
Alternatively, you can add a comma (“,”) to the end of your password, followed by a Duo passcode or the name of a Duo factor. Here's how:
Type.. | To.. |
---|---|
password,passcode | Log in using a passcode, either generated with Duo Mobile, sent via SMS, generated by your hardware token, or provided by an administrator. Examples: 'mypass123,123456' or 'mypass123,1456789' |
password,push | Push a login request to your phone (if you have Duo Mobile installed and activated on your iOS, Android, or Windows Phone device). Just review the request and tap 'Approve' to log in. |
password,phone | Authenticate via phone callback. |
password,sms | Get a new batch of SMS passcodes. Your login attempt will fail — log in again with one of your new passcodes. |
You can also add a number to the end of these factor names if you have more than one device registered. For example, push2 will send a login request to your second phone, phone3 will call your third phone, etc.
Examples
To use Duo Push if your password is 'hunter2', type:
To use the passcode '123456' if your password is 'hunter2', type:
To send new SMS passcodes to your second phone if your password is 'hunter2', type:
The comma is Duo's default separator character between your password and the Duo factor. Your administrator may have changed this to a different character. Be sure to follow the instructions sent to you by your organization if they differ from what's shown here.
Second Password for Factor Selection
If AnyConnect shows a 'Second Password' input field (note that your AnyConnect administrator may have changed the 'Second Password' label to something else):
Use the 'Second Password' field to tell Duo how you want to authenticate. Here's how:
Type.. | To.. |
---|---|
A passcode | Log in using a passcode, either generated with Duo Mobile, sent via SMS, generated by your hardware token, or provided by an administrator. Examples: '123456' or '1456789' |
push | Push a login request to your phone (if you have Duo Mobile installed and activated on your iOS, Android, or Windows Phone device). Just review the request and tap 'Approve' to log in. |
phone | Authenticate via phone callback. |
sms | Get a new batch of SMS passcodes. Your login attempt will fail — log in again with one of your new passcodes. |
You can also add a number to the end of these factor names if you have more than one device registered. For example, push2 will send a login request to your second phone, phone3 will call your third phone, etc.
Examples

Overview
Army Cisco Vpn
Stanford's VPN allows you to connect to Stanford's network as if you were on campus, making access to restricted services possible. To connect to the VPN from your Mac you need to install the Cisco AnyConnect VPN client.
Two types of VPN are available:
- Default Stanford (split-tunnel). When using Stanford's VPN from home, we generally recommend using the Default Stanford split-tunnel VPN. This routes and encrypts all traffic going to Stanford sites and systems through the Stanford network as if you were on campus. All non-Stanford traffic proceeds to its destination directly.
- Full Traffic (non-split-tunnel). This encrypts all internet traffic from your computer but may inadvertently block you from using resources on your local network, such as a networked printer at home. If you are traveling or using wi-fi in an untrusted location like a coffee shop or hotel, you may wish to encrypt all of your internet traffic through the Full Traffic non-split-tunnel VPN to provide an additional layer of security.
You can select the type of VPN you want to use each time you connect. Crack myob.
