Add WINS servers to AnyConnect VPN Clients?

[GroundControl]

Is it possible to add WINS servers to AnyConnect VPN clients? I am using an MX250. It is possible with IPsec VPN clients, but not with AnyConnect. Is there a workaround to get WINS servers attached to AnyConnect clients?

AnyConnect Client VPN Setting (No settings for WINS):

IPsec Client VPN Settings (Here we have WINS settings):

Why do you want to configure the Wins server? It's a legacy service, use DNS server instead.

[GroundControl]

I know WINS is a legacy thing - this however is a special usecase with different networks for test and deployment operations, and using WINS makes it easier for the users to manage their equipment.

[alemabrahao]

Well, as far as know, It's not possible. Is the DNS suffix an option?

[GroundControl]

The DNS suffix won't help in this situation.

Could it be possible to somehow add DHCP Option 44 when the MX gives the AnyConnect client its IP and DNS servers?

[alemabrahao]

You can configure DHCP option but for Anyconnect I think It's not possible. Meraki has limitations when we talk about VPN client.

Yes, I'm afraid i have to look into some other work-around - or get the development department to drop the WINS server!

This is the solution.
