Feature Request - Show Available Connections When Starting Sophos Connect

ken9000

I'd like to suggest the client start by opening a window showing the configured connections versus just starting in the system tray, requiring the user to open it and then select the connection. Thanks!

    Hello,

     

    have you tried the Auto-Connect feature on Sophos Connect. It will even avoid that addition step you have mentioned. Your firewall admin can configure a connection using Sophos Connect Admin and enable Auto-Connect for the connection. Now import his connection in Sophos Connect. What this does is the following. Based on the Auto-Connect configuration, Sophos Connect Client will automatically detect if it is on the company network or outside the company network. If your credentials are saved then as a user you have nothing to do to get VPN up and running. Only the first time you will be prompted for credentials and if you save them, from then on it is no additional key strokes required.

    Please let us know your feedback.

    We require multi-factor authentication so we have to use the OTP.

    Ken,

     

    Are you using the Sophos Connect Admin program to configure the policy? In Sophos Connect admin you can enable OTP in addition to Auto Connect. Then the user will be prompted for username and password (if these credentials are not saved) and the OTP. If the credentials are saved, then the user will be prompted only for OTP. Please let us know how it goes.
