I suspect that the VM created by VMWare Player, no matter the VM is running Windows or Linux, Cisco VPN client will not be able to run inside the VM. The client can get connected successfully, but when we try to send some traffic over, the traffic is not getting through to the tunnel.
I'll dig further into this and get back to you guys.
Update
So it is confirmed, it is not possible to dial out using Cisco VPN inside a VM when the VM is running in VMWare Player/VMWare Workstation.
When I get the chance, I shall test it in the bare metal platform, VMWare ESX/ESXi
Cheers!
Update
Alright, finally found out the real issue.
When the network is set to NAT mode for the VM, it is not possible to use the VPN client to connect by default.
When the network is set to Bridged mode for the VM, then the connection using VPN tunnel is successful.
There must be certain port in the NAT which we need to fix for the VPN client to go out. It is likely that there is a solution. Shall dig deeper and update again.
