This page contains links to download and installation instructions for VPN software for Mac OS

University of Illinois students, faculty, and staff can use these directions to set up their Mac OS computers or devices to connect to the Virtual Private Network (VPN).

  • Group: 1_SplitTunnel_Default
    (Note: This is the most common choice. See About VPN Profiles for information about the alternatives, such as Tunnel All for access to Library and WebStore resources.)

Detailed instructions are provided below.

Downloading the VPN software

  2. Save the file at an easily findable location, such as your desktop.

  6. The installer will estimate how much space is needed. Click Install.


  7. You'll be prompted that Installer is trying to install new software.
    NOTE: This prompt is not asking for your NetID; it asks for your local user name and password on that specific computer.
    • Enter your local user name.
    • Enter your local computer password.

Security Warnings

Mac OS 10.14, 10.15, and 11 (Big Sur) will warn you that the Cisco software is trying to load an extension (it might be a kernel extension or a system extension, depending on your OS and the Cisco version). In either case you need to approve this in order for the VPN software to work correctly. To do this go to System Preferences -> Security and Privacy and on the General tab you will see a notice that Cisco AnyConnect has requested to install System Software or a kernel extension and a button marked 'allow'. If the icon in the lower left is 'locked' you'll need to click on that to unlock for changes and provide an administrator password to make the button clickable. Verify that it says Cisco AnyConnect is requesting the change, and then click 'allow'. Follow any other on screen directions, or dismiss any dialog boxes that say it has been allowed.
