Very interesting. I had never heard of this VPN protocol before.
Definitely seems like it'd be worth adding support for.

I write and maintain a tool called what-vpn which can be used to
sniff/survey various SSL/TLS-based VPNs, largely so that we can try to
figure out what fraction of VPNs out there are supported by
OpenConnect (currently >90% 😎):

I just added a rudimentary detector for Aruba VIA networks VPNs in
https://github.com/dlenski/what-vpn/commit/15cc61a1956270c57c574b956ec2faa6bc7be386

I tested it on a couple university VPNs where I could find public
documentation that they are indeed running an Aruba VPN… would you
mind testing to see if it works on yours?
