NEVPNManager check is connected after restart the

问题:

I coding a VPN tool, using the NetworkExtension framework. I can connect IPSec through NEVPNManager.sharedManager, and can grab the notification when VPN connect status changed. But when I kill the app, and reopen it, the NEVPNManager.Connect.Status always Zero, than means can't display the correct connect state. How to solve it?

Try this:

func viewDidLoad() {
    // Register to be notified of changes in the status. These notifications only work when app is in foreground.
    notificationObserver = NSNotificationCenter.defaultCenter().addObserverForName(NEVPNStatusDidChangeNotification, object: nil , queue: nil) {
       notification in

       print("received NEVPNStatusDidChangeNotification")

       let nevpnconn = notification.object as! NEVPNConnection
       let status = nevpnconn.status
       self.checkNEStatus(status)
    }
}



func checkNEStatus( status:NEVPNStatus ) {
    switch status {
    case NEVPNStatus.Invalid:
      print("NEVPNConnection: Invalid")
    case NEVPNStatus.Disconnected:
      print("NEVPNConnection: Disconnected")
    case NEVPNStatus.Connecting:
      print("NEVPNConnection: Connecting")
    case NEVPNStatus.Connected:
      print("NEVPNConnection: Connected")
    case NEVPNStatus.Reasserting:
      print("NEVPNConnection: Reasserting")
    case NEVPNStatus.Disconnecting:
      print("NEVPNConnection: Disconnecting")
  }
}

The above code should generate the following messages when running the app with VPN already connected:

checkNEStatus:  NEVPNConnection: Invalid  
viewDidLoad:    received NEVPNStatusDidChangeNotification  
checkNEStatus:  NEVPNConnection: Connected

William Sterling comment does make sense, & it works for me,

Before adding observer for NEVPNStatusDidChange load preferences for VPN Manager object like bellow,

override func viewDidLoad() {

        super.viewDidLoad()

        self.vpnManager.loadFromPreferences { (error) in
            if error != nil {
                print(error.debugDescription)
            }
            else{
                print("No error from loading VPN viewDidLoad")
            }
        }

        NotificationCenter.default.addObserver(self, selector: #selector(ViewController.VPNStatusDidChange(_:)), name: NSNotification.Name.NEVPNStatusDidChange, object: nil)

     }
