Brief Description:
An upgrade of the CUVPN client, AnyConnect, will be configured in the CUVPN servers on Wednesday, September 30, 2020 5am - 7am.

From the Releasee Notes:
.- For SSL VPN, AnyConnect no longer supports the following cipher suites from both TLS and DTLS: DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA and DES-CBC3-SHA
.- After upgrading from 4.8.3052 to 4.9.64 AnyConnect fails to establish VPN connection over IPsec
