Check whether device is connected to a VPN in iOS 12










3















I am using the code below (Swift 3 and Swift 4 compatible) to check the VPN connection on iOS devices which is not working in iOS 12 and above. How can I check the vpn connectivity in iOS 12



func isVPNConnected() -> Bool 
let cfDict = CFNetworkCopySystemProxySettings()
let nsDict = cfDict!.takeRetainedValue() as NSDictionary
let keys = nsDict["__SCOPED__"] as! NSDictionary

for key: String in keys.allKeys as! [String]
return false



Thank you for your help.
