Yes, problem appears when using NetworkManager 1.0.6 and opencconect 7.06-2+b1 Routing table and MTU remain the same between the reconnects. Only thing that changes is DNS. this example of resolv.conf looks like after reconnect, before that it only has one (different) nameserver entry: --- #@VPNC_GENERATED@ -- this file is generated by vpnc # and will be overwritten by vpnc # as long as the above mark is intact # Generated by NetworkManager nameserver IP1 nameserver IP2 search domain1, domain2, domain3, domain4, domain5, domain6, domain7, domain7 --- > Can you perhaps test in an unstable container or VM with a simple static > IP config and no NetworkManager? > > But this is only to eliminate or implicate NM.

Having Juniper support with openconnect is the first proper solution on Linux. Other options are to use a browser, or to use various (third party) scripts to establish the connection. It would be nice to get it working using my current set-up. Which is APT Pinning with base system on stable with network-manager/openconnect from testing/unstable. Other option is to fully upgrade to unstable and then everything will work as expected. But, I'm not sure a lot of people want this on their (possibly production) environments on unstable. Third option is to backport openconnect 7.x to Jessie, but taking in consideration all its dependencies, this might be a bit complicated task. Either way, please let me know if either of you have any additional ideas or input you need from my side.
