Configuring AnyConnect (SSL) VPN Client Connections
The Cisco AnyConnect VPN client provides secure SSL connections to the adaptive security appliance
for remote users. The client gives remote users the benefits of an SSL VPN client without the need for
network administrators to install and configure clients on remote computers.
Without a previously-installed client, remote users enter the IP address in their browser of an interface
configured to accept SSL VPN connections. Unless the adaptive security appliance is configured to
redirect http:// requests to https://, users must enter the URL in the form https://<address>.
After entering the URL, the browser connects to that interface and displays the login screen. If the user
satisfies the login and authentication, and the adaptive security appliance identifies the user as requiring
the client, it downloads the client that matches the operating system of the remote computer. After
downloading, the client installs and configures itself, establishes a secure SSL connection and either
remains or uninstalls itself (depending on the adaptive security appliance configuration) when the
connection terminates.
In the case of a previously installed client, when the user authenticates, the adaptive security appliance
examines the revision of the client, and upgrades the client as necessary.
