Check Point MAB and Cisco AnyConnect Issues

We use the Check Point MAB for connecting our corporate laptops when out of office.

We are also also trialing Cisco Umbrella for DNS/Web Filtering.

For this, we have installed Cisco AnyConnect Diagnostics and Reporting Tool, Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client, Cisco AnyConnect Umbrella Roaming Security Module.

When the Cisco software is installed, I can logon to the MAB/SSL VPN, I click Connect, the SSL Network Extender box pops up and then just closes down.

If I uninstall all of the Cisco AnyConnect software or stop the services and go through the VPN logon again, it connect with no issue.

Has anyone seen anything like this or could you recommend any assistance here? Any type of log on the C drive to show why the Check Point SSL Network Extender pops up and then closes?

I have a thread via Cisco and there is no issue compatibility that they can see etc.

Software Compatibility - Roaming Security Module (Umbrella module) for AnyConnect or Cisco Secure Client – Cisco Umbrella

Maybe Split Tunnel? Can split Tunnel be set on the MAB or is this just a Remote Access/SecureClient setting?

Thanks

This can be configured, see sk31873 - but i think that - as often experienced with Cisco SW - CP RA VPN blocks other VPN clients installed before and multi-vendor Endpoint Protections might fight more between each other instead of stopping malware 8)
