Because openconnect-sso contains some libraries that are still not supported on ARM we have to run our terminal with rosetta and setup brew for x86_64. (you'll need the above PATHs to be added to .zshrc or .bashrc)

axbrew install pipx

/usr/local/homebrew/Cellar/pipx/1.1.0/bin/pipx install "openconnect-sso[full]"

Another thing that you should install is (from normal terminal):

brew install openconnect

After these steps you will be able to use the VPN from Rosetta terminal:
