Cisco AnyConnect VPN Client Administrator Guide

OL-12950-012

Chapter 1

Introduction

Remote User Interface

•

IPv6 VPN access—Allows access to IPv6 resources over a public IPv4 connection (Windows XP

SP2, Windows Vista, Mac OSX, and Linux only).

•

Start Before Login (SBL)—Allows for login scripts, password caching, drive mapping, and more,

for Windows.

•

Certificate-only authentication—Allows users to connect with digital certificate and not provide a

user ID and password.

•

Simultaneous AnyConnect client and clientless, browser-based connections—Allows a user to have

both an AnyConnect (standalone) connection and a Clientless SSL VPN connection (through a

browser) at the same time to the same IP address. Each connection has its own tunnel.

•

Compression—Increases the communications performance between the security appliance and the

client by reducing the size of the packets being transferred. Compression works only for TLS.

•

Fallback from DTLS to TLS—Provides a way of falling back from DTLS to TLS if DTLS is no

longer working.

•

Language Translation (localization)—Provides a way of implementing translation for user messages

that appear on the client user interface.

•

Dynamic Access Policies feature of the security appliance—Lets you configure authorization that

addresses the variables of multiple group membership and endpoint security for VPN connections.

•

Cisco Secure Desktop support—Validates the security of client computers requesting access to your

SSL VPN, helps ensure they remain secure while they are connected, and attempts to remove traces

of the session after they disconnect. The Cisco AnyConnect VPN Client supports the Secure

Desktop functions of Cisco Secure Desktop for Windows 2000 and Windows XP.

•

Rekey—Specifies that SSL renegotiation takes place during rekey.

Note

The Cisco AnyConnect VPN Client can coexist with the IPSec Cisco VPN Client, but they cannot be

used simultaneously.

Remote User Interface

Remote users see the Cisco AnyConnect VPN Client user interface (

Figure 1-1

). The Connection tab

provides a drop-down list of profiles for connecting to remote systems. You can optionally configure a

banner message to appear on the Connection tab. The status line at the bottom of the interface shows the

status of the connection.
