I had a post about how to change the default host for Cisco AnyConnnect on Windows. A user has asked me how to change this on Mac. I spent a few minutes to find this information. Here is how you change it:
If you’re thinking about purchasing a new GPU, we’d greatly appreciate it if you used our Amazon Associate links. The price you pay will be exactly the same, but Amazon provides us with a small commission for each purchase. It’s a simple way to support our site and helps us keep creating useful content for you. Recommended GPUs: RTX 5090, RTX 5080, and RTX 5070. #ad
- Open Terminal application.
- Type in the command at the Terminal window. This opens up TextEdit
open –e ~/.anyconnect
- Find and edit the DefaultHost line in TextEdit so that it is set to the host of your choice
<DefaultHost>vpn.mycompany.com</DefaultHost>
- Save the file under TextEdit.
The default host will be set to vpn.mycompany.com the next time you run Cisco AnyConnect.
