Description SolidTemperature0 2021-12-09 17:18:07 UTC
SUMMARY
Whenever you try to connect to a OpenConnect VPN (I tested this with the gp protocol) the window for the authentication procedure is shown even if the credentials (pkcs#12 pass phrase, username and password, gateway) are already saved. For the sake of usability, that window should appear only the first time a user log in and not appear again if the credentials are saved (except if any sort of error happened).


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Connect to a OpenConnect VPN via the applet
2. The authentication window appears with all the fields already filled.

OBSERVED RESULT
The user need to keep press the "log-in" (I translated this back to english, so it maybe be different) button until the procedure it's completed.

EXPECTED RESULT
If the credentials are already saved, this windows should not be shown and just automatically connect (like with OpenVPN).

This bug maybe should be part of the "15-Minute Bug Initiative", it depends from how used are openconnect vpn, because like this is a suboptimal experience wrt openvpn for example.
