Bug Description
My organizations Cisco ASA's are configured so that each VPN group has it's own URL.
This means I have to configure my connections like this:
[vpn]
service-
...
...
...
...
gateway=
authtype=password
This does not work through network manager, as the GUI does not read anything beyond the "/" (forward slash).
In the above example, when selecting the created connection from network manager's available VPN connections, the gateway shows only the part before the slash: sslvpnconnect.
When trying to connect directly through openconnect via terminal:
openconnect sslvpnconnect.
It works just fine.
Our ASA's are configured in this way and I cannot influence that. The ASA does not give a group dropdown, nor am I able to specify an authgroup parameter. I need to use a unique URL for each VPN group.
