When I use

./forticlientsslvpn_cli --server 172.17.97.85:10443 --vpnuser forti

to connect to the vpn, (using Forticlient SSLVPN 4.4.2329-1 64bit & Forticlient SSLVPN 4.4.2327-2 64bit) it shows

STATUS::Connected

but I don't get an IP, so it did not really connect. Any ideas please?

Got info from this ServerFault post.

I resolved the same issue in Ubuntu 16.04 by installing ppp

# apt-get install ppp

Wait till you get message such as STATUS::Tunnel running , since tunneling takes time. You can check if tunnel got created or not by using command

ifconfig ppp0

As I am able to connect to vpn using above CLI command from Ubuntu 16.04 , here is my console output:

STATUS::Login succeed
STATUS::Starting PPPd
STATUS::Initializing tunnel
STATUS::Connecting to server
STATUS::Connected
Press Ctrl-C to quit
STATUS::Tunnel running
