My customer has provided me these inputs to connect to their network:
-
Server IP
-
pkcs (.p12) file
-
And a Certificate
On Windows, I installed the .p12 file into the Local store, imported the CERT into the Cisco VPN client, added a new entry with server IP and pointed the certificate to the imported cert (file).
Now how do I do these steps on MAC El Capitan?
I added the .p12 file into the keychain (System level) and also imported the certificate. I am creating a new entry under Network -> VPN -> Cisco IPSEC and selecting this CERT under authentication. When I try to connect, I see an error "an unexpected error occurred".
What did I do wrong?
