OpenConnect is a client for Cisco's AnyConnect SSL VPN, which is
supported by IOS 12.4(9)T or later on Cisco SR500, 870, 880,
1800, 2800, 3800, 7200 Series and Cisco 7301 Routers.
Cisco's implementation of the DTLS protocol unfortunately does not
comply with the relevant standards, and the OpenSSL in FreeBSD's
base requires a patch to provide full interoperability. You will
still be able to establish a tunnel, but all traffic will be
transmitted via an HTTPS connection. This means that any packet
loss on your link will result in a significant detriment to the
speed of your VPN connection.
Like vpnc, OpenConnect is not officially supported by, or
associated in any way with, Cisco Systems. It just happens to
interoperate with their equipment.
Note that versions of FreeBSD older than 8.0 will require a small
number of additional patches, due to the older version of OpenSSL
included in their base.

Cisco's implementation of the DTLS protocol unfortunately does not
comply with the relevant standards. OpenSSL must be patched to
provide full compliance with their implementation, and due to the
older release of OpenSSL in the FreeBSD base, there are additional
patches that must be applied to achieve the same goal. Though
OpenConnect will still function, all traffic will be passed over
an HTTPS connection. Should there be any packet loss on your
link, your VPN connection will suffer greatly.
