Appium doesn't work when connected to VPN (Mac/ios)

[maha]

Hi All,

When i connect my mac to my wifi and try to run the appium script, the appium communicates well with the ios device (DUT) and the script executes fine.

When i connect my mac machine to vpn using CiscoAnyconnect, the appium seems to stop working.
If any of you have faced the similar issue or know the reason and solution for this, please let me know.

Thanks in advance.

Cheers!
Maha

VPN most likely gives it a new IP
