With Windows using either AnyConnect or the Cisco IPSEC client on ASA, I can type IPCONFIG /ALL and see the associated network parameters - IP addresses, DNS, domain search order, etc under the Cisco VPN adapter. This is very helpful when troubleshooting connectivity issues.
I cannot find similar commands (GUI or Command Line) for MAC OSX. Networksetup doesn't seem to see any VPN adapter at all.
Can anyone with better MAC knowledge than I provide some assistance? Thanks.
Solved! Go to Solution.

I use both OS X built in Cisco IPSEC and AnyConnect. I can't speak to
Cisco's IPSEC client.
So with AnyConnect running I can click on AC menu icon and see some stats
like IP address, etc.
ifconfig returns:
utun0: flags=8091
inet 10.10.10.91 --> 10.10.10.91 netmask 0xffffff00
With AnyConnect down and built in IPSEC up I can see ip address and also dns
servers in use via network pref gui and if config returns:
utun0: flags=8011
inet 10.10.10.91 --> 10.10.10.91 netmask 0xffffff00
You should try to get away from old Cisco IPSEC client if you can.
Are you using an ASA? On an ASA5510 with 8.2 software it is only $100 for a
250 user basic AnyConnect client license.

ifconfig is the equivilant command.
try man ifconfig for detailed info.
via GUI system prefs > network should give plenty of info too.

Thanks for your response, Brandon. There's no detail - no IP address, DNS, domain search, etc.
cscotun0: flags=8850
closed
as opposed to my wireless NIC, for example:
en1: flags=8863
inet6 fe80::226:8ff:fee5:aec8%en1 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x6
inet 10.1.180.70 netmask 0xfffffc00 broadcast 10.1.183.255
ether 00:26:08:e5:ae:c8
media: autoselect status: active
supported media: autoselect
Also, cat /etc/resolv.conf shows only the DNS servers from DHCP, not from VPN:
nameserver 199.5.86.29
nameserver 10.32.23.29
nameserver 199.5.86.10
Any other ideas?

Are you using IPSEC or AnyConnect? If IPSEC are you using OS X built in
Cisco VPN client?

Brandon, I am using Cisco's IPSEC MAC client v 4.9.01.0180. I am also using anyconnect-macosx-i386-2.4.0202-k9.pkg.
I need to be able to support both IPSEC and AnyConnect.
Thanks again.
