The Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client provides secure SSL and IPsec/IKEv2 connections to the ASA for remote users. Without a previously installed client, remote users enter the IP address in their browser of an interface configured to accept SSL or IPsec/IKEv2 VPN connections. To accomplish this, follow the steps below.
Step 1: First define the local ip pool
TestASA(config)# ip local pool VPN_testUsers 192.168.xxx.45-192.168.xxx.60 mask 255.255.xxx.0
TestASA# show disk0: | in pkg8x.97.xxx.143/26
Step 2: Configuring a Network object
Note: the "!" are just comments, dont include themTestASA(config)# !creating a network object via the command lineTestASA(config)# object network Chris_AClTestASA(config-network-object)#TestASA(config-network-object)# !now define the type of network object it is that you want to createTestASA(config-network-object)#TestASA(config-network-object)# subnet 192.168.xxx.0 255.255.xxx.0TestASA(config-network-object)#
Step 3: Enabling HTTP Server
TestASA(config-if)# http server enableTestASA(config)# http http 192.168.xxx.0 255.255.xxx.0 inside
Step 4: Enabling telnet via the console
TestASA(config)# telnet 192.168.xxx.0 255.255.xxx.0 insideTestASA(config)#TestASA(config)# !note, telnet cannot be performed from an outside networkTestASA(config)# !and that we can connect from the network specifiedTestASA(config)# !and we are connecting from insideTestASA(config)#TestASA(config)# passwd ciscoTestASA(config)# telnet timeout 1000TestASA(config)# !here we specified the password and also the telnet timeout of 1000s
Step 5: Enabling SSH (secure shell) via the console
TestASA(config)# !you have to generate the RSA keyTestASA(config)# Crypto key generate rsa modulus 1024WARNING: You have a RSA keypair already defined named <Default-RSA-Key>.Do you really want to replace them? [yes/no]: yesKeypair generation process begin.
