Add a Secure Client profile file

The Secure Client Profile is an XML file that contains configuration settings to control the client's operation and appearance, including host names, addresses, and feature options. You can create and manage this profile using the Secure Client Profile Editor, a standalone, GUI-based tool in the Secure Client software package. For more information about Secure Client Profile Editor, see Cisco Secure Client (including AnyConnect) Administrator Guide.

To use remote access VPN with Firewall Threat Defense devices, assign the Secure Client Profile to VPN clients by attaching it to a group policy. The Firewall Threat Defense device deploys the profiles during a Secure Client connection.
