Configuring AnyConnect Remote Access VPN on a Cisco ASA Firewall

I did labs for AnyConnect VPN on a Cisco ASA firewall but I was asked in the real world to migrate a Cisco ASA 5510 acting as AnyConnect VPN server to an ASA 5525-X with FirePower module. I've deleted the old AnyConnect package files on the ASA's flash since the ASA 9.4 code is compatible with AnyConnect 3.1.x. I had a previous post regarding the transfer of AnyConnect package files and installing the AnyConnect Premium VPN license. Here's a Cisco guide and Lab Minutes video for configuring AnyConnect Remote Access (RA) VPN on a Cisco ASA firewall.

Here's a nice AnyConnect VPN troubleshooting guide from Cisco and a link regarding the steps for a successful firewall migration.

Verify first if the Cisco ASA firewall has the AnyConnect images for Windows, Mac and Linux clients.

There are several important pieces to configure a RA AnyConnect VPN on a Cisco ASA firewall:

1) Ensure there is enough AnyConnect Premium Peers installed on the new ASA. The ASA comes with only two AnyConnect Premium Peers so a maximum of two AnyConnect clients can connect at the same time. The total amount of AnyConnect Premium Peers is ASA platform dependent.

2) Configure a local DHCP pool for RA VPN clients.

ciscoasa(config)# ip local pool VPN-POOL 172.20.7.50-172.20.7.245 mask 255.255.255.0


3) Create an object for the DHCP pool subnet and configure an Identity NAT to ensure the AnyConnect clients are prevented from being NAT'd on the outside interface (Internet).

ciscoasa(config)# object network OBJ-ANYCONNECT
ciscoasa(config-network-object)# subnet 172.20.7.0 255.255.255.0

ciscoasa(config)# nat (inside,outside) source static any any destination static OBJ-ANYCONNECT OBJ-ANYCONNECT no-proxy-arp route-lookup


4) Enable AnyConnect SSL connections on the ASA outside (Internet facing) interface.

webvpn   
 enable outside       // IMPORTANT COMMAND
 anyconnect image disk0:/anyconnect-linux-3.1.14018-k9.pkg 1      // THE NUMBERS ARE THE SEQUENCE NUMBER; YOU CAN RE-NUMBER PACKAGE NUMBER
 anyconnect image disk0:/anyconnect-linux-64-3.1.14018-k9.pkg 2
 anyconnect image disk0:/anyconnect-macosx-i386-3.1.14018-k9.pkg 3
 anyconnect image disk0:/anyconnect-win-3.1.14018-k9.pkg 4   
 anyconnect enable       // IMPORTANT COMMAND
 tunnel-group-list enable
 cache
  disable       // DISABLES CACHING OF FREQUENTLY USED OBJECTS IN SYSTEM CACHE


5) Configure the AnyConnect Group Policy. You can optionally specify a split tunnel ACL which specify subnets that will directly access network resource such as the Internet.

group-policy GP-CORP internal
group-policy GP-CORP attributes
 wins-server none
 dns-server value 8.8.8.8
 vpn-tunnel-protocol ssl-client      // IMPORTANT COMMAND
 default-domain value local.net


6) Configure a Tunnel Group which binds information from other config (like a crypto map).

tunnel-group CORP type remote-access     // IMPORTANT COMMAND
tunnel-group CORP general-attributes
 address-pool PN-POOL
 authentication-server-group RADIUS      // POINTS TO A RADIUS SERVER aaa-server protocol radius AND aaa-server host
 default-group-policy GP-CORP
 tunnel-group CORP webvpn-attributes
 group-alias CORP enable


The following are some additional steps if you're migrating CA cert from an old ASA to a new ASA device. This will avoid Untrusted VPN Server Block error when connecting to AnyConnect VPN.

7) Export the CA certificate from old ASA device and import to the new ASA device.

7) Configure a CA Trustpoint on the ASA. If you don't perform steps above you can configure a CA Trustpoint and an error is shown when you just copy/paste the config on the new ASA.

5525-NEW(config)# crypto ca trustpoint ASDM_TrustPoint1

5525-NEWconfig)# crypto ikev2 remote-access trustpoint ASDM_TrustPoint1
ERROR: Trustpoint not enrolled.  Please enroll trustpoint and try again.


Once the CA cert is imported on the new ASA, you can configure these commands:

5525-NEW(config)# crypto ca trustpoint ASDM_TrustPoint1
5525-NEW(config-ca-trustpoint)#  keypair ASDM_TrustPoint1
5525-NEW(config-ca-trustpoint)#  crl configure

5525-NEWconfig)# crypto ikev2 remote-access trustpoint ASDM_TrustPoint1

5525-NEW(config)# ssl trust-point ASDM_TrustPoint1 outside


For FirePower traffic redirection, I've configured a deny ACL to ensure AnyConnect clients are prevented from hitting the inspection policy (although it is SSL encrypted traffic).

access-list FP-ACL extended deny ip 172.20.7.0 255.255.255.0 any 
access-list FP-ACL extended deny ip any 172.20.7.0 255.255.255.0
access-list FP-ACL extended permit ip any any

class-map FP-CMAP
 match access-list FP-ACL

policy-map global_policy
 class FP-CMAP
  sfr fail-open 


I've tested AnyConnect VPN after the migration and it had to upgrade to AnyConnect 3.1 and got connected to the ASA VPN server afterwards.


There are also scenarios wherein AnyConnect VPN is established and you're able to access internal resources but there's NO Internet access. You'll need to create a NAT rule for VPN client going to the outside interface and permit VPN traffic coming from the outside and go out again (U-turn or hairpin) on the same outside interface.

Installing Cisco ASA 5500-X AnyConnect Package and Premium VPN License

I had to upgrade the image on a Cisco ASA 5525-X firewall and upload the AnyConnect package files that are compatible with the said image. The ASA comes with AnyConnect package that is compatible with the image installed by default. You can verify the AnyConnect package files on the ASA's flash (disk0:) using the dir or show flash (show disk0:) commands.
