Install the packages

  sudo apt-get install vpnc network-manager-vpnc network-manager-vpnc-gnome

and then from bash you can try

vpnc-connect vpn.conf

you need to supply the vpn configuration file as argument.

you can use nmcli to do that. this program is use for network management.

nmcli con up id <name_of_connection>

you need to save the password of that connection before you use this command. For more information, try man nmcli

any help on how to create VPN_CONNECTION in bash and how to manage them will appreciate
