The Cisco ASA supports a variety of features that can be customized for the clientless SSL VPN user experience, among which are portal look and feel, application access, and file browsing. Just load a new image to the ASA (under Configuration - Remote-Access VPN - Network (Client) Access - AnyConnect Client Software) and the client will load the new software the next time when the client connects. Of course the client shouldn't have a setting applied to not download new software. Feb 05, 2020 These messages are ignored by the ASA, but are useful in maintaining connections with devices between the client and the ASA. For instructions to configure Keepalive with the ASDM or CLI, see the Enable Keepalive section in the Cisco ASA Series VPN Configuration Guide.
Introduction
This guide provides information that can be used to configure a Cisco PIX/ASA device running firmware version 7.x to support IPsec VPN client connectivity. If you have a PIX device running firmware version 6.x, please consult the HowtoCiscoPix. The Shrew Soft VPN Client has been tested with Cisco products to ensure interoperability.
Overview
The configuration example described below will allow an IPsec VPN client to communicate with a single remote private network. The client uses the pull configuration method to acquire the following parameters automatically from the gateway.
- IP Address
- IP Netmask
- DNS Servers
- DNS Default Domain Suffix
- DNS Split Network Domain List
- WINS Servers
- PFS Group
- Remote Network Topology
- Login Banner
Gateway Configuration
This example assumes you have knowledge of the Cisco ASA gateway command line configuration interface. For more information, please consult your Cisco product documentation.
Interfaces
Two network interfaces are configured. The outside interface has a static public IP address of 1.1.1.20 which faces the internet. The inside interface has a static private IP address that faces the internal private network. The default gateway is configured as 1.1.1.3 via the outside interface.
Access List
An access lists must be configured to define the IPSec policies. This is expressed with the source matching the local private network(s) and the destination matching any as the VPN client address will be assigned by the gateway.
Cached
Address Pool
The IP address pool must be configured. Clients will be assigned private network addresses from a pool of 10.2.20.1-10.2.20.126.
User Authentication
User authentication must be configured to support IKE extended authentication ( XAuth ). In this example, we use define user accounts locally on the ASA. It is possible to pass this authentication to a radius or an LDAP account server using the Cisco AAA authentication mechanism. For more information, please consult your cisco product documentation.
IPsec Parameters
A transform set and dynamic IPsec crypto map must be configured to support client VPN connections. The dynamic crypto map is then assigned to a standard crypto map and bound to the outside ( public ) interface.
ISAKMP Parameters
The ISAKMP protocol must be enabled on the outside ( public ) interface and an ISAKMP policy must be configured. NAT Traversal is also enabled to allow clients to communicate effectively when their peer address is being translated. The keep alive packet rate is set to 20 seconds.
Group Policy
A group policy must be configured to provide the client with dynamic configuration information.
Tunnel Group
A tunnel group must be configured to define the VPN Client tunnel parameters. It is created using the type ipsec-ra for IPsec remote access. The client uses the tunnel group name as its FQDN identity value and the tunnel group pre-shared-key as its pre-shared key value.
Client Configuration
The client configuration in this example is straight forward. Open the Access Manager application and create a new site configuration. Configure the settings listed below in the following tabs.
General Tab
The Remote Host section must be configured. The Host Name or IP Address is defined as 10.1.1.20 to match the ASA outside ( public ) interface address. The Auto Configuration mode should be set to ike config pull.
Phase 1 Tab
The Proposal section must be configured. The Exchange Type is set to aggressive and the DH Exchange is set to group 2 to match the ASA ISAKMP policy definition.
Authentication Tab
Cisco Asa Pdf
The client authentication settings must be configured. The Authentication Method is defined as Mutual PSK + XAuth.
Local Identity Tab
The Local Identity parameters are defined as Fully Qualified Domain Name with a FQDN String of 'vpnclient' to match the ASA tunnel group name.
Remote Identity Tab
The Remote Identity parameters are set to IP Address with the Use a discovered remote host address option checked to match the ASA ISAKMP identity parameter.
Credentials Tab
The Credentials Pre Shared Key is defined as 'mypresharedkey' to match the ASA tunnel group pre-shared-key.
Known Issues
Cisco Asa Clientless Vpn Rdp
Cisco gateways support a proprietary form of hybrid authentication which does not conform to RFC draft standards. At this time the Shrew Soft VPN Client does not support this authentication mode. We hope to add support for this in the future.
