Support for Sophos Connect v2 Client

Hello,

We already have a ticket opened to add support for Sophos Connect V2. We have raised the priority and will let you know once we have something.

As a note, if you have additional information regarding the SCCLI command line in Sophos Connect V2 and what seems to be useful for your specific scenario, it would be good to know as I'm not sure if this is something we can test internally or not.

Regards,

Hi Hubert,

Thanks for the quick reply and look forward to seeing this VPN client support be added in the coming furture.

Thanks again
Rich

Hello,

any news/roadmap regarding the implementation?

Hello Daniel,

Unfortunately we couldn't quite fit it into our 2022.2 roadmap so it has been pushed back to 2022.3. We're going to start working on this relatively soon too but version 2022.3 is planned to release more towards the end of the year.

Regards,

As a note, it's possible we may fit it in a minor update to 2022.2, but I suspect that we may have to modify the entry quite a bit as well as add new properties to the entry to switch between v1 and v2 support, which is why I think we'll have to only release it in 2022.3. We will post in this thread when we have more information.

Regards,

Thanks for the update!

Best regards,
Daniel

Hi Guys,

im not sure if im right in this section, so move if wrong ;)

for Sophos Client i just made me an .bat file to copy the old OpenVPN configs to the new Connect client and a simple start cmd with username and password.
Maybe it would be helpful for your integration.

Copy old OpenVPN.conf to Connect
#This will just import the old .ovpn config file to the connect Client in c:\Program Files (x86)\Sophos\protected\com.sophos.xxxxx with encryption.
c:\Program Files (x86)\Sophos\connect\sccli.exe" add -f <Path to old .ovpn Config File>

Start the Connect client with the importet VPN Profil
#first u have to check the hostname of the file as seen in the connect client or knowing ;) u can change the name in the Connect client as u want bcs it takes no affect for the script
C:\Program Filex (x86)\Sophos\Connect\sccli.exe enable -n <yourknowinghostname> -u <username> -p <password>

I dont know about a trigger of the OTP actually maybe there must be a question after starting the VPN because the OTP token is part of the password. U have normaly to type your username and password followed by token as an example
user
passwordtoken

Disconnect the VPN Connection is same like connect just type disable then enable like this
C:\Program Files (x86)\Sophos\Connect\sccli.exe disable -n <yourknowinghostname>

The Trigger for the cli is attached as a screenshot.

Hope i could help u a bit.

Im Also a bit confused about the actuall Sophos Connect configuration in RDM i have to set a Config file, i dont know where to find.

Hello David,

thanks for the info. So we seem to have some kind of issue or misconfiguration.
We tested one connection yesterday - it did not work.

I'll open up a new thread regarding this.

Daniel
