|GitHub|GitLab|Downloads|Version|

|[](https://github.com/robertdebock/ansible-role-cisco_anyconnect/actions)|[](https://gitlab.com/robertdebock-iac/ansible-role-cisco_anyconnect)|[](https://galaxy.ansible.com/robertdebock/cisco_anyconnect)|[](https://github.com/robertdebock/ansible-role-cisco_anyconnect/releases/)|
## [Example Playbook](#example-playbook)
This example is taken from [`molecule/default/converge.yml`](https://github.com/robertdebock/ansible-role-cisco_anyconnect/blob/master/molecule/default/converge.yml) and is tested on each push, pull request and release.
```yaml
---
- name: Converge
hosts: all
become: true
gather_facts: true
roles:
- role: robertdebock.cisco_anyconnect
```
The machine needs to be prepared. In CI this is done using [`molecule/default/prepare.yml`](https://github.com/robertdebock/ansible-role-cisco_anyconnect/blob/master/molecule/default/prepare.yml):
```yaml
---
- name: Prepare
hosts: all
become: true
gather_facts: false
roles:
- role: robertdebock.bootstrap
- role: robertdebock.core_dependencies
```
Also see a [full explanation and example](https://robertdebock.nl/how-to-use-these-roles.html) on how to use these roles.
## [Role Variables](#role-variables)
The default values for the variables are set in [`defaults/main.yml`](https://github.com/robertdebock/ansible-role-cisco_anyconnect/blob/master/defaults/main.yml):
```yaml
---
# defaults file for cisco_anyconnect
# The directory where temporary files will be stored during installation
cisco_anyconnect_tmp_dir: /tmp/cisco-anyconnect
# The URL where the Cisco Anyconnect package can be downloaded from
# cisco_anyconnect_download_url: "https://its.gmu.edu/wp-content/uploads/cisco-secure-client-linux64-5.1.3.62-predeploy-k9.tar.gz"
cisco_anyconnect_download_url: "https://www.sanidadnaval.cl/wp-content/uploads/vpn/cisco-secure-client-linux64-5.1.3.62-predeploy-k9.tar.gz"
# Since this package is not typically available from a public URL, you can host your own copy and reference it here.
# cisco_anyconnect_download_url: "https://example.com/downloads/cisco-secure-client-linux64-5.1.3.62-predeploy-k9.tar.gz"
# The directory where Cisco Anyconnect will be installed
