VPN, CISCO AnyConnect, Mac OS X, Options Grayed out on Installation I'm trying to install VPN but I can't continue with the installation because everything is greyed out or only the AMP is available. This happens when there is a previous installation of VPN on your machine. We don't have any change log information yet for version 4.8.03052 of Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client. Sometimes publishers take a little while to make this information available, so please check back in a few days to see if it has been updated. The current version of the Cisco AnyConnect client available through WebStore (4.8.03052) is officially supported and compatible with Mac OS X versions that support 64-bit applications including Mac OS versions 10.13 (High Sierra), 10.14 (Mojave), and 10.15 (Catalina).
Installation
- Apple: Upgrade to MacOS Catalina
- Create a bootable installer for macOS for mass deployment
Note: These steps will also work for macOS Catalina.
Known issues
- 32 bit applications will not work on macOS Catalina. You will need to stay on a lower version until you can find alternative software. More information on how to find which of your apps are 32 bit is available in the Knowledge Base.
- Apple has extended the PPPC and TTC protocols to include users Documents, Desktops, and Downloads. This means software like CrashPlan and Sophos cannot access these directories by default with granting full disk access manually. Machines enrolled in the IS&T Jamf instance will have this issue automatically resolved. Manual steps for granting an application full disk access is available in the Knowledge Base.
- Third party kernel extensions (such as Sophos, Crowdstrike, and VMware) will require a reboot before they take effect.
- Apple has deprecated language runtimes including python, ruby, and perl. They will not be included in future versions of macOS.
