Install AWS VPN Client on MacOs version 14

Question

Hi,

Is there a way to setup AWS VPN Client for MacOs 14?

As stated by the [documentation](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/vpn/latest/clientvpn-user/client-vpn-connect-macos.html), it seems to only support `macOS Big Sur (11.0), Monterey (12.0), or Ventura (13.0).`. Is there an alternative way to install it on the latest MacOs version? 
Following the setup steps I'm getting this error while trying to connect: `Opening utun (connect(AF_SYS_CONTROL)): Resource busy (errno=16)`.

If no alternative setup is possible, do you know when we'll get a compatible version for MacOs 14?

Thanks in advance for your help

Answer

AWS Client VPN installs and works perfectly with Mutual SSL Authentication on MacOS 14.4.1:

```
% sw_vers
ProductName:		macOS
ProductVersion:		14.4.1
BuildVersion:		23E224
```

And using the following AWS Client VPN for MacOS:

Possibly the documentation is out of date with the supported operating systems?

You can of course always use the official OpenVPN Client as well - by downloading it here: https://openvpn.net/client-connect-vpn-for-mac-os/

Hello,

As of now, it is not possible to install the AWS VPN Client for macOS 14, as stated in the docs:

> To use the AWS-provided client for macOS, the following is required:
> * macOS Big Sur (11.0), Monterey (12.0), or Ventura (13.0).
> * x86_64 processor compatible.
> * The client reserves TCP port 8096 on your computer.
> * For Client VPN endpoints that use SAML-based federated authentication (single sign-on), the   > client reserves TCP port 35001.

However, we can use another VPN Client, such as OpenVPN, for which AWS also has a setup guide:
