Description : F5 VPN command-line client
This software allows you to connect to an F5 VPN server without using
their browser plugin. It also has the advantage of setting up DNS
properly on OSX systems, which the official client doesn't do. (but
maybe they will in the future, now that they can copy the method I use).
It is not supported or affiliated with F5 in any way. I actually find it
rather sad the client they provide is so terribly poor that I had to
write this in order to get reliable access to my company's VPN.
This software does not require any software from F5 to be installed on
the client. The only requirement is Python 2.3.5 or later. It works on
at least Linux and OSX systems, but porting to any similar OS should be
trivial. Porting to Windows, on the other hand, is probably not
reasonably possible.
