To download a previous version of Secure Client

You can download any version of the Secure Client installer from Cisco.com:

  2. Click the Cisco Software link:
  3. In Cisco Secure Central, download the desired Secure Client pre-deployment package and the version for the OS on the end-user device.
  • Examples:
    • macOS — cisco-secure-client-macos-5.1.0.136-predeploy-k9.pkg
    • Windows — cisco-secure-client-win-5.1.0.136-predeploy-k9.msi

Step 3 - Download profile or configuration files

  • Note: Client configuration files may also be called Profiles.
  1. In the Download Profiles section:

    1. For the Internet Security module, download the orginfo.json file.
      • The file is used with the Internet Security module (also known as the Umbrella roaming module). The file tells the module where to report and which policies to enforce.
    2. For the VPN module, choose all applicable VPN profiles.
      • The VPN profile tells Secure Access which VPN profiles to enforce. You created the VPN profiles in the End-User Connectivity module of Secure Access (show menu path).
    3. For the Zero Trust Access module, there is no configuration file.
    4. For the ThousandEyes module, download the ThousandEyes profile. The file tells ThousandEyes which Secure Access organization the endpoint belongs to.
      • Prerequisite: You must have onboarded Experience Insights to download the file. To onboard, navigate to: Experience Insights and click Get Started.
      1. Unzip the predeployment file.
      2. Save the file in the Profiles/thousandeyes folder.
        • MacOS users: The DMG file is read-only, so the Profiles/thousandeyes folder is not writable. As a workaround:
          1. Unpack the DMG file.
          2. Add the profiles.
          3. Distribute the unpacked DMG file or re-bundle it.
      3. Run Setup .exe.
      4. For the installation option, select the ThousandEyes Agent module.
      5. Complete Setup.exe.
        Result: The agent is registered to the correct Secure Access organization.
