VPN client agent was unable to create the interprocess communication depot

I am getting an error when trying to establish a link with the secure gateway : Any Connect was not able to establish a connection to the specified secure gateway. Please try connecting again.

I have tried linking again many times. I have also tried rebooting my machine and linking to no avail. The problem seems to be intermittent though, basically because it did get in touch just fine over the past couple of days. Can anyone help?.

I am operating version 2.5.0217 on windows Vista.

Please do check your firewall settings if it is turn on, if it is you must turn it off first before proceeding with the installation the problem is that something is blocking your virtual communication device that a virtual network or computer needs. To do that go to control panel and look for security management.

I had also faced the same issue while installing the VPN client. After some workaround I found the fix for this error.

Usually this error comes because of Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) enabled on the network adapter.

ICS allows the other network user to connect through your computer internet connection. Your internet enables computer becomes the access point for other devices in your network.

You can fix the error by disabling ICS.

ICS can be disable by following two ways:- 

• By changing network adapter setting

1. Go to Run (Win+R)
2. Type “ncpa.cpl” and press enter. It will open the network connections
3. Right click on the network adapter and select properties
4. Go to sharing tab
5. And uncheck the “Allow other network users to connect through this computer's Internet connection” option.
6. Click ok. 

• By disabling ICS service 

1. Go to Run (Win+R)
2. Type “services.msc” and press enter. It will open the services
3. Right click on “Internet Connection Sharing (ICS)” and select properties
4. Change startup type to “Disabled”
5. Reboot the computer.   

After disabling ICS try to install the “Cisco AnyConnect VPN Client”.
