Selecting full/split tunnel profile with f5fpc

Hi,

We're using BigIP Edge Client to connect to our corp VPN. When connecting using the GUI, we get the connection form where we can chose Full Tunnel or Split Tunnel mode. This works fine.

 

We also have an unattended connection script using F5fpc to connect. However, this always connects in Split-Tunnel mode. How can I make it connect in Full-Tunnel?

 

This is the "f5fpc -info" output when connected in SPLIT tunnel - note the favorite name:

favorite:  type:  name:                       code:  status:
1          vpn    /Common/corp_split_network  1      established

 

This is the "f5fpc -info" output when connected in FULL tunnel - note the favorite name:

favorite:  type:  name:                     code:  status:
1          vpn    /Common/corp_ft_network   1      established

 

I've tried these commands, but it still connects in SPLIT tunnel mode:

f5fpc.exe -start /h globalvpn /u username /p password /t /n /Common/corp_ft_network
f5fpc.exe -start /h globalvpn /u username /p password /t /n "/Common/corp_ft_network"
f5fpc.exe -start /h globalvpn /u username /p password /t /n "/Common/corp_ft_network:vpn"

 

Is there a way to force Full-Tunnel? Is the problem caused by the favorite name starting with a slash (I can't change it) and if so, is there a way to escape the slashes?

 

Thank you.
