ASA 9.x: AnyConnect VPN Client U-turning Configuration Examples

Introduction

This document describes how to set up an Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) Release 9.1(2) in order to perform Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) VPN on a stick with Cisco AnyConnect VPN Client. This setup applies to a specific case where the ASA does not allow split tunneling and users connect directly to the ASA before they are permitted to go to the Internet.

Note:  In order to avoid an overlap of IP addresses in the network, assign a completely different pool of IP addresses to the VPN Client (for example, 10.x.x.x , 172.16.x.x, and 192.168.x.x). This IP addressing scheme is helpful in order to troubleshoot your network.

Hairpinning or U-turn

This feature is useful for VPN traffic that enters an interface, but is then routed out of that same interface. For example, if you have a hub-and-spoke VPN network where the security appliance is the hub and the remote VPN networks are spokes, in order for one spoke to communicate with another spoke traffic must go to the security appliance and then out again to the other spoke.

Enter the same-security-traffic command in order to allow traffic to enter and exit the same interface.

ciscoasa(config)#same-security-traffic permit intra-interface

Prerequisites

Requirements

Cisco recommends that you meet these requirements before you attempt this configuration:

• The hub ASA Security Appliance needs to run Release 9.x.

• Cisco AnyConnect VPN Client 3.x

  Note: Download the AnyConnect VPN Client package (anyconnect-win*.pkg) from the Cisco Software Download (registered customers only) . Copy the AnyConnect VPN client to the ASA's flash memory, which is to be downloaded to the remote user computers in order to establish the SSL VPN connection with the ASA. Refer to the Installing the AnyConnect Client section of the ASA configuration guide for more information.

Components Used

The information in this document is based on these software and hardware versions:

• Cisco 5500 Series ASA that runs software version 9.1(2)

• Cisco AnyConnect SSL VPN Client version for Windows 3.1.05152

• PC which runs an supported OS per the Compatibility Chart.

• Cisco Adaptive Security Device Manager (ASDM) version 7.1(6)

The information in this document was created from the devices in a specific lab environment. All of the devices used in this document started with a cleared (default) configuration. If your network is live, make sure that you understand the potential impact of any command.

Background Information

The Cisco AnyConnect VPN Client provides secure SSL connections to the security appliance for remote users. 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 security appliance is configured to redirect http:// requests to https://, users must enter the URL in the form https://<address>.

After the URL is entered, the browser connects to that interface and displays the login screen. If the user satisfies the log in and authentication, and the security appliance identifies the user as requiring the client, it downloads the client that matches the operating system of the remote computer. After the download, the client installs and configures itself, establishes a secure SSL connection and either remains or uninstalls itself (this depends on the security appliance configuration) when the connection terminates.

In the case of a previously installed client, when the user authenticates, the security appliance examines the revision of the client and upgrades the client as necessary.

When the client negotiates an SSL VPN connection with the security appliance, it connects with Transport Layer Security (TLS), and also uses Datagram Transport Layer Security (DTLS). DTLS avoids latency and bandwidth problems associated with some SSL connections and improves the performance of real-time applications that are sensitive to packet delays.

The AnyConnect client can be downloaded from the security appliance, or it can be installed manually on the remote PC by the system administrator. For more information on how to install the client manually, refer to the Cisco AnyConnect VPN Client Administrator Guide.

The security appliance downloads the client based on the group policy or username attributes of the user that establishes the connection. You can configure the security appliance to automatically download the client, or you can configure it to prompt the remote user about whether to download the client. In the latter case, if the user does not respond, you can configure the security appliance to either download the client after a timeout period or present the login page.

Configure

In this section, you are presented with the information to configure the features described in this document.

AnyConnect VPN Client for Public Internet VPN on a Stick Configuration Example

Network Diagram

This document uses this network setup:

ASA Release 9.1(2) Configurations with ASDM Release 7.1(6)

This document assumes that the basic configuration, such as interface configuration, is already completed and works properly.

Note: Refer to Configuring HTTPS Access for ASDM in order to allow the ASA to be configured by the ASDM.

Note: In Release 8.0(2) and later, the ASA supports both clientless SSL VPN (WebVPN) sessions and ASDM administrative sessions simultaneously on Port 443 of the outside interface. In versions earlier than Release 8.0(2), WebVPN and ASDM cannot be enabled on the same ASA interface unless you change the port numbers. Refer to ASDM and WebVPN Enabled on the Same Interface of ASA for more information.

Complete these steps in order to configure the SSL VPN on a stick in ASA:

1. Choose Configuration > Device Setup > Interfaces and check the Enable traffic between two or more hosts connected to the same interface check box in order to allow SSL VPN traffic to enter and exit the same interface. Click Apply.

Allow Communication between AnyConnect VPN Clients with the TunnelAll Configuration in Place

Network Diagram

If communication between Anyconnect Clients is required and the NAT for Public Internet on a Stick is in place; a manual NAT is also needed to allow bidirectional communication.

This is a common scenario when Anyconnect Clients use phone services and should be able to call each other.

ASA Release 9.1(2) Configurations with ASDM Release 7.1(6)

Choose Configuration > Firewall > NAT Rules > Add NAT Rule Before "Network Object" NAT Rules so the traffic that comes from the outside network (Anyconect Pool) and it's destined to another Anyconnect Client from the same pool does not get translated with outside IP address 172.16.1.1.

Allow Communication between AnyConnect VPN Clients with Split-Tunnel

Network Diagram

If communication between Anyconnect Clients is required and Split-Tunnel is being used; no manual NAT is required in order to allow bidirectional communication unless there is a NAT rule that affects this traffic configured. However the Anyconnect VPN Pool must be included on the Split-Tunnel ACL.

This is a common scenario when Anyconnect Clients use phone services and should be able to call each other.

Verify

Use this section to confirm that your configuration works properly.

The Output Interpreter Tool (registered customers only) (OIT) supports certain show commands. Use the OIT to view an analysis of show command output.

• show vpn-sessiondb svc-Displays the information about the current SSL connections.

  ciscoasa#show vpn-sessiondb anyconnect

• show webvpn group-alias-Displays the configured alias for various groups.

  ciscoasa#show webvpn group-alias
  Tunnel Group: sslgroup   Group Alias: sslgroup_users enabled

• In ASDM, choose Monitoring > VPN > VPN Statistics > Sessions in order to know the current sessions in the ASA.

  

Troubleshoot

This section provides information you can use to troubleshoot your configuration.

• vpn-sessiondb logoff name <username>-Command to log off the SSL VPN session for the particular username.

  ciscoasa#vpn-sessiondb logoff name ssluser1
  Do you want to logoff the VPN session(s)? [confirm] Y
  INFO: Number of sessions with name "ssluser1" logged off : 1
  
  ciscoasa#Called vpn_remove_uauth: success!
  webvpn_svc_np_tear_down: no ACL
  webvpn_svc_np_tear_down: no IPv6 ACL
  np_svc_destroy_session(0xB000)

  Similarly, you can use the vpn-sessiondb logoff anyconnect command in order to terminate all the AnyConnect sessions.

• debug webvpn anyconnect <1-255>-Provides the real time webvpn events in order to establish the session.
