As per doc, Anyconnect report the captive portal if after HTTPS
certificate failure  it gets unexpected HTTP code from the server.

The AnyConnect client does captive portal detection but you will only see
it if you are using the many options available via the xml config file.

The options in the client itself are very limited.

We are a Telstra 4G / Anyconnect SSL VPN shop and I haven't heard of any 
complaints for this issue. Are you using Anyconnect, or just using the 
clientless VPN?

Are they 100% using the 4G connection and not accidentally on hotel / public 
Wi-Fi that might have a captive portal on it? I didn't think Anyconnect even 
had a portal detection feature, I've never seen one on any versions I have run.

There might be a portal check feature if it does have one that is failing to 
reach your ASA/VPN termination gear, even though the actual connection is fine. 
I'm not aware of specifics around a mechanism if one exists so that’s 
speculation at best, but maybe ICMP reachability etc?

Cheers,
Ayden

Howdy,

We've had a bunch of customers complaining about getting popups
claiming that the user is behind a captive portal and needs to
authenticate/resolve connectivity issues first before the SSLVPN
software can connect.

a bit spread thing trying to locate the exact reason, but seems it is
very erratic with customers scattered.
