Unsuccessful Domain Name Resolution Cisco Anyconnect

Posted on by



This error can occur when people use Google Public DNS (DNS servers 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4) or any other DNS server that was manually entered in their network settings. The solution is to remove the static DNS servers and let the computer/device obtain the correct DNS server that is appropriate for the network they are currently on.

On the troubleshooting note, Cisco says: 'If you want to run Secure Desktop (the 'Vault') on Windows XP over an AnyConnect connection, you must configure CSD to identify Windows Vista and Windows 7 operating systems in the prelogin policy and then run Cache Cleaner for those operating systems instead of Secure Desktop'.
