Continue investigation from my previous thread, I manage to obtain a
decent capture of client log.
Basically test flow:
connect to ocserv, put my iphone 6 to sleep, wake it from sleep after
3 minutes, and observe reconnect attempt failed.
My ocserv settings:
auth = "certificate"
cookie-timeout = 600
cisco-client-compat = true

TL;DR: So ocserv return 401 when AnyConnect send it the auth cookie? I
think there is something wonky happening, even though I set it to last
for 10minutes, and does not require certificate on reconnect, ocserv
still rejects AnyConnect reconnect attempts.
