  • NAT adjustment for AnyConnect traffic8:27

    If ASA firewall is performing NAT for the Internet traffic flowing from Inside to Outside network and AnyConnect is also configured on the Outside interface of ASA firewall, a special NAT rule is required on ASA firewall to differentiate between Internet traffic and AnyConnect traffic.

    In this lecture you will learn about the NAT adjustment.

  • Selected vs. Internet traffic via AnyConnect VPN (Split Tunnel)24:01

    Split tunnel is a concept that enables you to configure which traffic you want to flow on AnyConnect VPN tunnel and which should not.(for example Internet and corporate office traffic can be given different network paths)

    In this lecture, I have taken examples of real world networks and explained the concept of Split-tunnel on ASA firewall with AnyConnect VPN

  • Traffic filters14:01

    Traffic Filters can be used to permit/deny specific traffic for AnyConnect remote users.

    In this lecture you will learn about traffic filters with help of a test scenario allowing AnyConnect remote users for SSH traffic to one server and Web traffic to another server and rest of traffic will be denied by implicit deny policy.

Requirements

  • Basic knowledge of working on Cisco's ASA firewall using CLI and ASDM

Description

Most organizations have a remote work force these days, COVID-19 has introduced a hybrid work culture in our society, where organizations are benefiting themselves by saving the infrastructure cost as their employees work from home.

Remote access VPN technology has gained popularity as the size of remote work forces have increased. There are many vendors in market who provide Remote access VPN service, however only few of them are on the top of list.

Cisco AnyConnect Remote access VPN is among the most favorite as it has the cisco's trusted technology, standards and it is easy to use for end users and at the same time easy to configure for network admins.

This course is intended for network administrators who want to learn about Cisco AnyConnect VPN functionality and features.

I have designed this course in such a way that concepts are explained in most simple way possible for the audience.

There are theory lectures which explain the concept and then there are LABs and test scenarios to cover the actual implementation in the production environment.

We will also do debug and troubleshoots to learn identify and resolve problems.

This course covers following topics.


  • Introduction to Remote access VPN

  • Hardware and software requirements to run AnyConnect VPN

  • License requirements to run AnyConnect VPN

  • SSL based AnyConnect VPN configuration CLI and ASDM

  • NAT adjustments for AnyConnect traffic

  • Split Tunnel concept

  • Traffic filters

  • External authentication Radius/LDAP

  • Dynamic Access Policies and its test scenario

Who this course is for:

  • Network Administrators
  • Network Engineers
  • Datacenter Engineers
  • Cisco ASA firewall engineers
