Problems with MacOS 15.3 Work VPN stopped working

I recently upgraded my Mac Studio to MacOS 15.3, but unfortunately, my SonicWall VPN connection is no longer working. All the servers at work are nowhere to be found. This was working perfectly before the upgrade. I’ve also found that other friends from my company, who use a Mac, are having the same issue. Any ideas on how we can fix this?

This is very common with corporate VPNs because sometimes (often) with an update or upgrade to the MacOS or to Windows, the server configuration must be changed or updated, or the VPN software must be updated itself. In some cases it is a very simple or trivial change: once our corporate servers rejected all incoming connections if the version of the OS detected did not match their list of allowed OS versions because they hadn't added the most recent version. When they fixed that, it worked. In your case it might be more complicated, or it might be simple. As BobThe Fisherman said, you need to contact them to find out if 15.3 is compatible and if not, when they plan to update things so that it is.
