Lots of network connections after Cisco VPN removal - which ones are needed?

I use macOS 11.2.2 on M1.

Some days ago I installed Cisco AnyConnect VPN Client but I decided to remove it after I detected that OpenConnect does the job also.

After removal of AnyConnect (I simply removed the app, which was perhaps a mistake), I saw that I currently have 19 (!) network interfaces shown in ifconfig - en0...en6 (!?), utun0...utun3, awdxx, anpiX, apX, awdXX, llwX, ...

Unfortunately I did not look at ifconfig before AnyConnect and OpenConnect messed around with that list.

To be clear: everything works well, but that mess is confusing.

How can I find out what can be removed?


Thanks for any hint and pls. excuse my English.
