Cisco AnyConnect: auto login in silent mode

This gist is for Linux. For windows is the same thing.

Connect

create a file .login_info as below:

connect your.server.url    
usernanme  
password
    (blank line)  

create a script as below

/opt/cisco/anyconnect/bin/vpn -s < .login_info   

Trouble shooting

The input (content of .login_info) may vary according to your settings. Try VPN shell to determine your inputs.

Run
/opt/cisco/anyconnect/bin/vpn -s

Now you are in command shell:
VPN>

Connect your server:
VPN> connect your.vpn.server

Input what asked, for me it's below:
Username: [xxxxx] xxxxx
Password: xxxxxx

Exit from VPN shell:
VPN> exit (or return)

Remember what you typed, and save them into the .login_info file.

Disconnect

With this approach, the icon will not show in the taskbar, you need run command line vpn disconnect to disconnect.
If you want to show the icon in the taskbar, add below line in the script:

/opt/cisco/anyconnect/bin/vpnui &
